My boyfriend pushed me because I was ‘provoking him’. I told him it was best we not be together. Was this the best decision? (Page 2)

Honey it sounds like you made the right decision you were trying to get your clothes and if he’s acting like a child then he’ll something is wrong with him
You are doing the right thing? I’ve been married 20+ years and never laid a hand on my wife, even when provoked. A man needs to keep his cool and think through all things. I could not live with myself if I ever hurt my wife.
I was always told that no one else “makes” me made. If I get mad it’s because I allowed myself to get that way. So it’s on him, your boyfriend. Time to move on.
I am not saying that what he did was okay. But I think of it this way man are human too and what she needed to do in this situation was give him his space give him time to calm down try to be more understanding to him instead of adding fuel to the fair. No man just gets upset for no reason there had to be a reason that made the guy to loose it.
Yes. You got yourself out of something that could’ve gotten way worse. A simple push turns into slaps and slaps turn into punches. Nobody should ever put their hands on you like that, even if they’re mad.
You did the right thing. You need to get away as fast as you can. There is never a reason for any guy to cause any physical harm to a woman.
He was "provoked"
He is just a mentally weak child.
I personally think you two have bigger personal issues compared to just simply your relationship but he shouldn't thrown you like a doll that is considered as battery and you can try arresting him if he ended up hurting you fully.
How did the argument happen in the first place. What are you doing to help him? Instead of critizeing him. Maybe he did that so he would not want to hurt you physically or verbally to try and ignore you. he did not want to talk look at it from his point of view.
Exactly 💯
Pack his shit up, put it outside, change the locks. If he becomes violent, call the police.
Couples fight all the time. Long as you both don't give each other a black eye, you are fine.
😂😂😂
You made the right decision. In my opinion for pushing the nightstand is one thing but pushing you is another. No grown adult should throw a child like tantrum and “provoke” is no excuse to put your hands on someone that you care about.
Shouldn't have treated you this way, nope. There's a limit to everything. What he did is unacceptable. Whatever you want to do, it's up to you but you won't be in the wrong if you decide to leave him.
Omg he is a man child.. please get out of that relationship before he does something much worse!
Yes.. One strike and you are out. Good move. These situations become tests. If he can get away with one little thing, it will happen again and escalate. Just GTFO. Be sure to read Lundy Bancroft's book "Why Does He Do That?" ... Stay safe sister
ummm. do you think its ok that he got physical with you? no woman should be with a guy that shoves her around. if you think this is OK it's probably only a matter of time before he starts slapping you
If he's acting on his anger with you in the physical sense, it's time to leave. This is a huge red flag that the relationship will become abusive.
This is clearly beta angst. Try dating a real man next time who pays all the bills and you do the house things.
Right, because alpha boys are NEVER violent towards their women?
@spartan55 you're confusing alpha and roid rage.
@bamesjond0069
No, don't think I could confuse those two things.
@spartan55 alphas generally have emotional self control moreso than betas.
Smart call, get the heck out of that relationship. Domestic violence is rarely a one-off event and usually escalates. Be prepared to call the police if he loses it and gets violent again during the break-up.
Oh please maybe she is only telling us what is convenient with her. She needs to be more understanding to him give him his space give him time to calm down. Not make the situation worst what already is. I hate femenist.
How can you be so calm. I would be so angry and call the police if he does not go out
Monogamy is one of the worst ideologies ever foisted on man, but... if you choose to be a dummbazz and get into a monogamous relationship, DO NOT EVER MOVE IN WITH EACH OTHER! EVER!
Violence in a relationship is never acceptable. I think you were right. Frequently 9nce that bridge is crossed it happens over and over.
That's a gigantic red flag. Do not ignore what he did, or diminish it. Best is to breakup with him. He got serious issues and you have a life to live.
