I need to tell you what I ended up getting into before anything, and I also need to tell you I'm in my 1st year of high school in Brazil , which means I'm 15. Basically a friend of mine (my age) dated this one guy for a bit more than a month, and he was super sweet and caring and did anything for her, but very early on she noticed that, despite her liking what the guy did for her, she didn't really like him at all, so she broke up with him. Very quick relationship, no attachments, no big deal. Well at least that's what she thought, cuz the guy ended up getting super upset and used his "I know a guy" powers to make up a group of I'm guessing 4 people that are like 3 to 4 years older than us to threaten her. They constantly sent her messages saying that they would hunt her down, and it was ignorable to an extent because even though they knew where she lives, it's a massive building, so she has enough protection. They even wanted to schedule a fight which is pretty stupid imo. She wasn't worried until yesterday when they said they knew where we studied and would go to our school to beat her up and ruin her life. That's when she got really scared. Now she's absolutely terrified of leaving school because she has to wait for her mom, and now I'm staying with her until my bus gets there.
Now, we're pretty big girls, at least for our country. I'm 5'5 and she's 5'7, which is a lot taller than the average teenage girl in Brazil. Plus, I have a considerably stronger built than the average grown woman, but that doesn't really apply to her. She's not really skinny, but she's a bit weaker than it would be expected of her for her size. Despite me being pretty strong, none of us have any actual fighting experience. I have thrown a punch here or some cursing there, but not an actual fight. We're talking about a group of people 4 years older than us featuring an 18 year old girl that has been arrested 3 TIMES already. I have a bit of an advantage because they have never seen me, but I might end up getting involved because she needs someone to be around her. She doesn't want to be alone, and I understand that but, despite me hating fights and being actually pretty good with words, I'm a lot more fiery than I look and I'm afraid that, if I end up seeing them, I might say or do something that I'm gonna regret because I have no idea how to protect myself, only how to hurt others and get me fucked up.
Her mom has already called the police about this but I'm not sure if anything has come out of it yet, if it ever will.
I don't want to give any more details, but does anyone have any self defense tips that both of us could use? Anything will be more than welcome. I'm not sure this is gonna get as serious as I'm worried it will, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Life is not an action movie. We know nothing and we need help.
Edit: I do want to add that we do have 3 more friends that know about this and we're never alone, but they also have no fighting skills. The only one that does have experience is way too egocentric to actually notice that he's, in fact, not John Wick, and that would probably get him knocked out in less than a minute. I heard someone say that a person with fighting skills never wants to actually fight, and I kept that in mind since.
