Ladies of SW...if your man was to "hit" u would u leave him ? 🤔✨

Or would u stay. Think about that now. What if your husband, boyfriend, or lover was to punch you in the face right now, would you stay with him. Or would you leave. Men can answer too. I would probably say this is it. I'm not gonna do this. Noone is worth being abused by or for
Comments. 🤔

Yes, and I did exactly that. I ended a 20 year abusive marriage the moment he harmed me physically. He had smashed a hardcover book into my face and bloodied and broke my nose. I looked at him and told him to pack his things and leave or I would call the police. He left without fanfare and I later filed for divorce.

He had been emotionally and verbally abusive for years before that happened and I lacked the conviction to end things. The physical assault gave me complete clarity.

@Zonuss In a weird way, it is the best thing that ever happened to me since I knew I was hanging in there with a man that sucked the life out of me. I was so chronically depressed being with him.

Fast forward to the man I am married to today and I can only say that there are really good men out there. I feel very lucky to have another chance at life with someone I love.

@Peapod Yes. Unfortunately too many people ignore signs. And then.their life becomes a big fat mess. 🙂

@Zonuss It was awful and I really didn't have much support from my family either who often witnessed him chucking objects at me when he got frustrated. It took me years later to realized how wrong [i]that[/i] was and how dysfunctional [i]they[/i] were. It was no wonder I had so little in me to know a good man from one that was not so good.

I truly feel sorry for those that hang in there until one or the other passes on. I cannot imagine growing old with such an existence. 🥺
