boyfriend hits.

[sienna.]

do you think that there are sometimes where a boyfriend should hit their girlfriend...
kinda like a wake up call????

lets say the girlfriend made herself throw up agian, there was blood.
and the boyfriend got really upset...
they started fighting about her eating disorder..

then the girlfriend says to the boyfriend, i should just die, i don't care.
then the boyfriend hit the girl across the face.

do you think it was called for??

the boyfirned then takes off because he is mortified about what he has done.
the boyfriend would never hit his girlfriend, bu he did.

do you think it was alright???

It is NEVER right for anyone to strike another, reguardless of the situation, unless when used in self defense. This is inappropriate, uncalled for, and under no sercomstances okay. Instead of hitting her, he should have expressed his concern for her and tried to talk about with her. Abuse, of any kind (mental or physical), will NEVER do anything in a relationship besides wreck it.

If this happened to you or anyone you know, I am really sorry! I suggest you get out of the relationship as quick as possible because this type of abuse is never acceptable, and statistics show that once a male figure in the relationship has done so, he will repeat to do so. Please tell the person who is in this situation that they should get out as soon as possible.

Hope this helps.

i think he jsut got really annoyed and lost it
its not right for him to hit you
but by the sounds of it he didnt mean to and feels reaaaally guilty and bad about it so i doubt hell do it again
i think it may have just been one of those one of things that you only ever do once cos of the after effects of it, which his reactions to it are showing

I think it as one of those hysteric attacks that you HAVE to slap someone.. like "WAKE UP!"
and him showing guilt after tells you he didnt mean it really, but it was too much, and words weren't getting through..

of course if it repeats, then it's totally different and totally unacceptable.

To correct what I said above, you should talk to him about it. But I suggest the phone in case he happens to strike you again. But if that continues, you need to get out.

it really shocked me seeing as i was in an abusive relationship right before i got with Coop.
and it was his best friend.
and he saved me from Matt.

i know Coop didn't mean it...
but i don't know why he did it.....????

Coop isn't the kind of guy to hit a girl, espically me.

and he wont answer my class or anything, he has just taken off....

i didn't know i was getting Coop so upset to the point where he would hit me,
because of my past, Coop wouldn't lay a violent hand on me..

Still, abuse is never okay.

Never A boy that loves and respects his girlfriend Never hits his sweety ... If she has a problem like an eating disorder he helps her to come out of it by showing love, cuddling her, saying reassuring words and LOVING her ... If a boy hits ONE time he can HIT AGAIN AND AGAIN ... In my opinion ... if i were you ... I am not telling you to leave him but if i were you i would ... that is abuse ... I am a guy and when i see in what ways other guys threat their girls I get really sad and i think the girls should stand up and leave ...

QFT.

Give this guy a break and actually try to get better!

I think it wasn't okay he just did not know what to do because the girlfriend had scared him.. And is it you..?
