gets irritated when someone helpless is being picked on so you defend them?
Hell yes; I'm highly protective of the under dog. Granted, I tend to avoid conflict that involves me. But if I see you messing with someone who clearly can't defend themselves, I go into attack mode lol I once screamed and swore at a kid in high school for ruining the shy kid in my class's project. The protectiveness emerged almost instantly, I scared the crap out of the guy lol
Avoid conflict that involves me meaning I just don't find it worth it, not that I'm scared. I'd just rather be happy Tongue

Yep exactly. Aries always roots for the underdog and defends people.

Side note: sometimes people don't want you to fight their battles...keep that in mind little Rams

I've never really considered that but I usually never butt in if the person is doing just fine without me. I'll keep that in mind though.

Totally! I always take sides with those that are being picked on...even if they're wrong, I am against ganging up and cornering one single person even if they're wrong. You could talk properly, but no dominance please. Respect, who ever it is.

Even if they're wrong??? Oooohhh nooooo, that's not me lol. As soon as you defend someone who is wrong, they'll continue to do wrong bc now they think someone is always going to defend/save them.
yes. If you're going to talk shit, back it up. Bullies just overcompensate for their own insecurities, but idgaf, you don't justify your actions because you have psychological scars. I think Aries are chivalrous at heart.
but ofc, i pick my battles. Sometimes I just shake my head and keep it moving, it really depends on the situation

Yup, I do that too. I make sure it's known that I disapprove in some shape or form and shaking my head is one of them.
Always.
It's funny actually, I find with a lot of Aries we take a lot of crap from people but when somebody gives somebody else crap we defend them. I often wondered why I don't defend myself as much as I do other people, but I've came to the conclusion that I know that I'm going to be ok, but I don't trust that somebody else will, so I feel like it is my duty to "save" them.

As twodrinkminimum says... sometimes people don't always want our help. Sometimes we need to stop thinking that we're invincible super heroes come to save the day hahaha, because even though it's kinda sweet, I understand it's probably kinda annoying too.
