Take care of YOU. Let him worry about him, you just stay away from him. A time may come that he physically hurts you and I'd hate to see that. Take care of yourself.

While we gain insight and strength in case of any similar event in the future...

I don't charge for counseling anymore...I'm retired
He is lucky he only got a slap. You have no obligation to this "man" whatsoever. You should run....not walk away from him. He is a self centered egotistical jerk who doesnt deserve to have a woman in his life. Bowing out of the hospital wasnt enough to convince you? Forget about him, hes not worth your time or effort at all. Get a real man who ACTUALLY cares for you and wants to spend time with you. Especially the times you need him the most like after a miscarriage.
petalbabe: This thread is about a lady who hit a guy. Simple.
Are we saying on here that this guy was such a nasty person that he deserved being slapped?
Because if we are, we have to be careful. There are plenty of women out there who bait their men to the point of distraction, behave in appalling ways and generally behave as badly, in different ways, to the guy in GG's opening post. If the guy lost his temper, and was pushed beyond the point of no return by mental torture, is he then justified in slapping his woman?
Physical strength can be irrelevant. A woman can do as much damage as a man if she is wound up enough, and there are plenty of men out there who are physically abused by their women but rarely report it because of the stigma attached to it.
......Very good post,and very true, Woman are just as capable of doing horrible Domestic violence as 'Equally' as Men....and its wrong,simple as that....thanks for saying what you said Petalbabe...much apprecaited....
you should have called me and let me kick his butt my girl friend just went threw that she never done nothing right come to find out he was cheating on her he has two kids by her that he sees about twice a year them kind of people are in love with their self she is a super lady he is not no good there are better people in this world good luck
emannigol: If he ever says that you're no good or useless, then ask what's he if no good or useless people have to keep helping him.
Take care
A clever question that would make people around laugh and him even more angry as he probably would not understand.
I am afraid that this kind of people do not really grasp the world as we want them too, and the only thing that so far did print into his mind was that slap.

oh may god, what a lucky escape you had.
I would not be obliged to him because he left northen ireland. He can go back if he wanted to. The way he sounds and calls you is live a power control freak putting you down for you to feel nobody will want you and everything you do is wrong so he has power over you.
Welldone for slapping him he had no right to talk to you in this way. If he is in the same place as you , dont be the one that feels they have to leave . Let him leave.
Next time he trys to talk to you ignore him and dont answer your phone to him.
Who the hell does he think he is?
Im glad for you you got away from him when you did.
Dont show him any emotion again the more you show him the more he has this power over you and he is not worth it.

Personally, I do not like these sort of threads.
Where there is only one side to the story, I realise that there can only be one side to it, as only one person is posting, however, there are dangers that the wrong advice can be given.
The man this lady is talking about, while her description of him, may be correct, has been harsh, but he has been labelled a controller, an abuser and those sort of labels are pretty dangerous.

she's right. obviously this is just my view. and i must say he is very charming and lovely to everyone ive seen him have contact with. he acts differently to me because we most certainly have issues between us. im sure his version of our contact would be very different to mine.
