it's honestly shocking to me how many posters itt are like "yeah that's it, give up on it all, leave her." Maybe if this was part of a pattern, I'd agree. But it's not.

Yes, this is bad, but finding love is all abt working thru the bad spots. Forgiveness, acceptance, and understanding are HUGE virtues, ones that I think a LOT of ppl itt lack

You wouldn't tell this to a b**** who got her s*** rocked, don't lead OP astray, being hit ain't "love"

You really CANNOT blame people for not having "empathy" or "understanding" because that's how male domestic voilence gets dismissed.

Virtue signal ANYWHERE else man.

Y'all ain't s***

Nigga, please get the f*** outta dodge

Y’all would not be saying this if the genders were reversed tbh.

virtue signal???

no mf if my girl got mad asl one night and slap me, then immediately apologize, deeply regret it, etc. I'd be mad, sure, but I'd work thru it. Like any normal human being should. If it's not part of a pattern, but an isolated incident, it's not worth throwing it all away.

yes i fkn would b

You cap asl

im 100% deadass

it shouldn't be this hard to believe that ppl can forgive mistakes, even rlly bad ones.

Uses past trauma as an excuse to commit acts of violence. Nah f*** that.

op and her should forgive, after some space/time off. People are human and make mistakes

As far as the context of being exclusive? Nah you should definitely leave if your partner punched you. Maybe like a shove/push but a whole punch? Nah

ridiculous

u think she was like "yea i wanna hit this mf, i bet if i say sum abt trauma I'll get away w it"? U rlly think this was calculated?

This s*** makes me kinda mad after experiencing abuse, but OK yea bro

except this isn't abuse this is a one off thing

Yes this b**** is manipulative hiw tf YOU crying after you hit someone

IF SOMEONE LAYS HANDS IN YOU, IT IS ABUSE MY NIGGA STOP THIS S***

I'm not talking to you. Ain't no women on here and if there are, they not finna f*** you for white knighting for this girl.

we have no fkn idea what OP and his girl are like okay!

maybe they are terrible for each other, but that's for them to figure out. Her getting physical is bad. Yes, it's pretty bad. But also consider that it's an isolated incident that's never happened before, and hopefully will never happen again.

If everything else abt the relationship is good, if OP feels loved and happy, I say it's worth working thru this

f*** u mean "im not talking to u" this a forum d***head we all talking to each other here

nobody white knighting, u mfs just some cold unforgiving twitterbrained mfs. nothing annoys me quite like people like that.

Call her mom and ask if she ever swung on her, I feel like she did that s*** because u was winning the argument

tf? cus she feel bad?

bro people make impulse decisions and do stupid s*** they instantly regret all the damn time.

It's wild to me that it's like physically impossible for u to even consider that maybe she doesn't think hitting her partner is cool.

no its not, respectfully bro, I feel like this is terrible advice

once you cross that line there is no going back, the respect is gone

it's not cold/unforgiving to not be cool with their partner being hit man, especially if we have first hand experience in this s***

I hate this inverse argument so much but bro would not be saying this if a woman was being punched by a man.

S*** is clearly abuse. Forgive her if you want down the line but why would you ever want to stay with a person like that lol.
