Think of this as happening in real life. You are at one end of a field with a dog. Your opponent is at the other end of the field and has a large eagle. You "sic" your dog on the other guy and your dog takes off down the field. The other guy commands his eagle to stop your dog. Eagle swoops down and dog and eagle fight. Eagle may win and stop dog, or dog may win and continue to hurt other guy, but you aren't going to be hurt either way. Now it's the other guys turn. Other guy sends his eagle to fly down and attack you. You can't command your dog to fly up and block the eagle.

It's your turn and you are attacking your opponent; that means you won't lose life from combat damage. The flying creature will deal combat damage to your non-flying creature. The fact that it has flying has nothing to do with it; that just determines whether it can block or be blocked.
Everything you need to know about this is covered in the basic rules; look for the section 'ATTACKING AND BLOCKING'.
- An attacking creature that is blocked deals damage to the creature or creatures that are blocking it, and vice versa.

If there is no trample (or any other abilities involved) fights between creatures will never cause damage to players.

Not directly relevant to the question, but to avoid any confusion it could be good to mention that even in the case of Trample, the attacking player will never get hit by combat damage.
