If I knew that the fight was unavoidable, I would throw the first punch.

be aware of your surroundings. (does he have friends sitting around the room, are they all near him\her, do they look they could attack you too, can you put an object such as a chair\table between yourslef and the attacker...) avoidance is key, because every fight has consequences...(hospital, jail,...)
you should put your hands up (fingers open), state loudly that you don't want any problems, and begin to walk to the exit.
if your attacker begins to attack you, then you need to defend yourself and get out of there before his\her friends attack you.

| "self-defense" if u hit him first, its not really considered self-defense now is it? it is if hes about to attack, but if you FEEL he is going to, your actions may not be justified |

So i should just wait for him to hit me first? I may not be able to if he hits me at a weak spot.

Weak spot? What is a weak spot? Get hit? Isn't that what training is for?

I was taught to put both hands up with the palms out... one of the black belts (who is also my doctor) said to do this and try to calm them down. This serves as a non-threatening, "I'm unarmed and don't want trouble" position but also as a guard; you are protecting your body and you can drive your fingers into his eyes if he starts to attack.

If he's just a jock venting his insecurities on you, put a slight smirk on your face, calmly take two BIG steps backwards, and walk away, shaking your head with an amused grin... Or just put your hands up and casually say something like "I don't want to fight!".... HOWEVER, if the guy is a raving psycho, wait until physical contact is made (I mean a shove etc. If he launches a full-blown hay-maker at you, dodge/parry/evade )and then launch a counter and make a get away if you can...

Waiting for an assailant to make contact first is a good way to get hit. Why wait to get hit?
