My ex and I got into a physical dispute last month and he moved on quickly into a new relationship. Was this his intention to date this person?

Last month my ex and I got into a huge fight, and he physically assaulted me. This fight was our biggest fight we ever had. I ended up with bruises on my arms and legs with scratch marks on my arms and a bloody fingernail. I have been feeling depressed after the fight since he never contacted me to apologized. He's the one who started it and physically assaulted me for no reason. He was drunk and in a rage mood when this happened. It's been 2 weeks of going no contact and he ended up in a new relationship now. It hurts me so much that he moved on so quickly after our huge fight. He told me to never talk to him ever, so I guess that was our breakup even though he started it. He denied doing it and did nothing wrong to me which I was told by a mutual friend. Was this his intention to date this woman by starting a huge fight with me? Please don't say anything negative and mean about it since I'm going through a hard time with him physically abusing me and he ends up being denial not doing anything wrong which is messed up and I'm still hurt by what he did to me without apologizing to me for what he did.

I'm sorry you are going through all this but you have to understand it's not a healthy relationship. It's already gotten physical what more do you want? Do you want to end up in a hospital? It's very toxic and relationships are meant to be happy and if there are any disagreements they are meant to be talked to but not yelling or hitting. I hope you get to a point in your life where you can work on yourself to no accept anymore of this behavior from anyone who come into your life. It's an amazing feeling when you take time for yourself to learn about you and to work on yourself in all areas before starting another one

You're worried about him being in another relationship quickly and not the fact he physically abused you?

What he did was/is illegal. So if he were to come back and beg for a 2nd chance, you would go back to him and forget he's violent?

Negative comments? How about advice to continue to defend him even when he puts you into the hospital? No one here has told you what you obviously want to hear because there is nothing positive about physical abuse. Dump him, move on, and be thankful you can.

You shouldn't even care what his intentions were. End it. Get him out of your life and stop thinking about him. He's a piece of shit. You want to get back together so he can beat you again? You don't need that. Move on with your life.

He assaulted you. Whether or not you want to press charges or warn his new girlfriend is up to you, but this is someone you do not want in your life.

Why do u think that a man that's willing to hit u would accept that he is a shitty person sorry

[Peter_Penetrator]

Be grateful he is gone. Let him beat on someone other than you.

@Changiis07 is right.

Once a man hits a woman he won’t stop until either of you are dead or he is in jail.

No one deserves having someone like this in their life. He my beg, plead, grovel and/or apologize, but he will hit you again.

Have you got a brother, trusted brother in law or is your father still around, one of them or all need to go visit this dude.

Under no circumstance should you make excuses for this guy.

Count yourself lucky to be free of a toxic relationship.

I bet he was already seeing the other girl, or at least talking to her.

[Kathy1983]

Probably he’s cheating or had a fall back plain.
