I would file this under, get out now...run just as fast as your two legs will carry you...this will not get better...only worse as time goes on...been there done that...trust me. Love does not mean being hit, controlled, or being degraded. If you need to talk, just drop me an e-mail any time. Please be safe.

Men could say the same about women. I know a few guys who are treated like dirt from their women, and they don't do anything about, they just take the beating. No no, there comes a time when you must call the cops and protect yourself, and if you are in danger of your life, I don't care if you're a man or woman, you fight and you fight hard. Then you put an order of protection (restraining order) against that person. But to come back and sob and give the "sorry baby" story, it may work for awhile, but in the end you are the one that looses.

I agree. Never is there an excuse to hit a woman. Maybe seeing as how I have only bee in New Mexico 10 years, my view differs. The way I was brought up was that even if a woman hits you like a man, just walk away. Hard to fight someone that won't fight back.

Should never beat on a woman ever

In the past I have dated 2 women who were violent toward me. My response to thier hitting me was finally to physically remove them from the house and lock the door. I didnt hit, hurt or anything else, just held thier arms and put them outside and locked the door. Both times this has happened I was arrested for it. Sure the charges were dropped both times, but I still went to jail. The moral of this story. Take the abuse and break up immediately. Women have power over the authorities and will use it against you especially if they themselves are in danger of getting in trouble.

Women, if you are really being abused, the sooner you leave in the relationship the better. Those type of guys are much more dangerous once they get thier hooks into ya.

I have known 2 men who were really abusive and they had serious controll issues that seemed to stem from thier childhood. They were not only abusive toward women, but to other men as well. I have no Idea what really drives them and my guess is that they dont either.
