  • Leave his ass. They say the first time is the hardest, and it gets easier and easier each time afterwards. I've never hit a woman....and I've been pretty mad. You can always find self restraint inside somewhere.
  • One time is a mistake. Two times is a pattern. Forgive but don't forget.
  • The trouble is the he feels bad NOW that he's sober. What will his excuse be next time when he's drunk? You're going to have to decide for yourself if the relationship is worth it. My concern is you say he got "a little" physical. That says a lot, like you're trying to play it down but you know it's a big deal. If he got physical enough for you to be concerned about it then it must have been bad enough to scare you. You two need to talk about this long and hard and if you ever feel threatened by him again leave and never look back. He also needs to take a hard look at his drinking habits. For someone to get drunk enough to become abusive is a bad thing.
  • I've never seen someone get hit just once. You have to have a certain mind set to have it in you to hit someone in the first place, and he obviously has it. You can give him another chance if you like (and hopefully he'll prove me wrong), but if he hits you again don't give him a 3rd chance.
  • It MAY be OK, but if he does it twice, get the heck out of the relationship unless you want a life of abuse.
  • I would get out of that relationship.
  • I say give him a choice, quit drinking or adios. If he bitches about not drinking then he's obviously not taking things seriously enough. If drinking ever caused me to lose it enough to actually rough a girl up, that'd be the last time I touched alcohol.
  • Of course it will never happen again...until next time. Then it'll never happen again after that. Eventually, he'll get tired of lying to you that it'l never happen again. By then, he'll probably have convinced you that it is all your fault. GET OUT NOW! This is how it happens. I've known plenty of people who've been in abusive relationships and when you ask them why they stayed after the first time, they'll say, "But he was so sorry and he promised it would never happen again." Don't be a fool. If you want to continue the relationship, tell him it is contingent on his getting counseling for a) violent impulses and b) alcohol abuse.
  • Dump his ass. I hate that you say he got a "little" physical. HE HIT YOU!!!!! HE ABUSED YOU!!!!! DO NOT JUSTIFY IT!!!! You have got to respect yourself more than that.
  • sounds like a real winner DUMP HIM
  • Counseling. Anger management. If he's serious about it not happening again, he'll take steps to make sure it doesn't. And not getting drunk is absolutely the first step.
  • Your boyfriend needs to quit drinking. It doesn't sound like he is mature enough to handle the alcohol. If he isn't willing to give up drinking for you then leave him. I comes down to which is more important, the alcohol or you. If he won't stop drinking permenantly than the alcohol is more important.
  • Good luck to you. This is one of many to come
  • You should do what you want. Do you want to be hit? OR Do you want a boyfriend who doesn't hit his girlfriend? YOUR CHOICE
  • Cut your loses and end the relationship. He WILL hit you again because he allowed himself permission to do it the first time. If you stay with him, you will lose the life you were suppose to have. (and that of any future children) GET OUT!!!!
  • leave. It might be the first time, but it sure as hell will not be the last, if you stay.
