I'm like really late, but I think everyone here is missing the fact that on average, a male is stronger than a female, it's not a double standard if you think about it. Not to mention he called both her mom and a sister a slut... just really? Is everyone that dumb? I would never have gotten back with him, he sounds like a huge dick tbh
You can't achieve gender equality by giving perks to one party.
Violence is violence, regardless who delivers it. A man on average being stronger does not give women full reign. That is disgusting entitled backwards thinking.
Give women the upper hand in this and you open up doors to abuse of this privilege. For gods sake, this double standard is already being abused to hell.
I agree that she should not have stayed with this guy, because he doesn't sound stable. But the girl is just as bad and shouldn't be getting a free pass just because she has a vagina.
I'm not saying she should but really? I mean the guy called her mom and sister a slut, I would have smacked him too. Maybe nit punched him, but obviously smacking him for saying something like that is not over the line. Hee started it. It doesn't matter if he was drunk or not. He was a douche. Period. You just have a fucked up sense of how the real world works. The guy needed a smack.
Thank you for agreeing. But I feel awful about punching him like that. And I apologized for that. He did deserve to be slapped though, I think. He told me that I shouldn't even be apologizing cause he deserved everything I did. And he kept sincerely apologizing for both things. He is honestly the best boyfriend. He's sweet snd funny and I trust him 100%. (Oh and by the way he barley even hit me but still) :)
You are both at fault, however you instigated this and he clearly knew enough not to put any type of significant force behind his slap because as you said it really wasn't that hard. But regardless take away from this that you shouldn't hit people because well thats obvious as to why.
You're both at fault but the fact that he couldn't control his anger suggests it will probably happen again (same goes for you). Furthermore, him saying what he did is rude, disrespectful and personally I'd end the relationship for that alone.
The fact that none of the behaviour didn't automatically end the relationship (including the verbal abuse) suggests that it will almost certainly happen again. Like attracts alike, eh?
Well... you did punched him and slapped him... you seem surprised. You gave him a reason to hit you back. But yes get back with him, both of you made mistakes that night. It should be forgoton
Yes, he was wrong to hit you, but it was in self defence. Women do not get a free pass to beat people up, you know. However, what he said about your family was rude. You two need to have a talk and decide how you will work this out, if you want to stay together. And no one can hit anyone ever again. I mean EVER.

He told me that the slap didn't even hurt and the punch barley hurt at all. So it wasn't self defense. why would you defend your self if something didn't hurt? and plus he said it was a reflex.
It's instinctive to hit back, regardless of how much it hurts. You don't have a second to think "oh, did that hurt?", but just react without thinking. No, it was not okay, but neither was it okay for you to hit him. Both of you need to work on how to discuss your problems nicely like adults.
He should not have hit you and you should not have hit him but he shouldn't say stuff like that about your mom and sister. If I were you I would be more upset that my boyfriend thinks so little of my family. That would be reason enough for me to break up with him
Violence if not acceptable from either side. It seems like both his points about your mom and sister were quite valid and that you were angry precisely because they had a lot of truth to them. If you hit a guy a few times, you bet he will hit you back.

My mom is not a slut she's been divorced for 10 years and has had 2 boyfriends and and it didn't work out with either of them. She dated one for 2 years and the other one for about 3 years. And now she is happily married to the third. So no she is a not a slut.
you are literally in the wrong. you hit him TWICE and expected him not to do anything about it. It doesn't matter if you hurt him or not because if you let someone hit you then they will obviously do it again because you let them. Now you know to keep your hands to yourself, you do not hit someone and expect to not get hit back you're literally giving me abusive vibes... 90% of the people in these comments are right, listen to them.
''I know I shouldn't have hit him twice but it's worse that he hit me back. He even knows that.''.. o. O? Bitch please I would've given you a black eye, you got off easy.

You hit him twice and thought he should just suck it up? Sounds like a double standard to me girl. You should have never hit him in the first place but that's just my opinion.
Neither of you should date anyone, if you are both aggressive then stay together and be aggressive together. No one should ever hit anyone in a relationship, and if they both hit each other then that is the worst relationship in the world.

No what is wrong with you people. Guys should not hit girls. I grew up with 5 brothers and none of them wold never hit a girl in a million years. And I have hit a guy once in my whole life and he admitted he deserved it. He was my best friend so no I am not abusive... Yes, break up with him or maybe give him one more chance.
Drunk or not. you had no right to hit him and he has no right to hit you. Drunks usually tell the truth and if he feels this way about your family I would end the relationship.
He told me that the slap didn't even hurt and the punch barley hurt at all. So it wasn't self defense. why would you defend your self if something didn't hurt? and plus he said it was a reflex.

Awesome, sounds like you guys worked it out :)

Yeah pretty much. I guess it comes down to what you're willing to tolerate in the relationship. My tolerance is low, lol.
Well... you did punched him and slapped him... you seem surprised. You gave him a reason to hit you back. But yes get back with him, both of you made mistakes that night. It should be forgoton

Yes, it's okay for playing around, but even with drinking or not, a punch and Judy scene can turn into the the Championship fights.

of course some girl here has to see her side of things. She was flat out wrong to hit him period
Just saying Justin-Hess had the same option as her. not that I agree with them.
it's not ok to hit boys. act like a girl. don't act like a boy (resorting to violence) and expect to get treated like a girl.
It's not worse that he hit you back. You can't just expect someone to be repeatedly struck without hitting back. You were both in the wrong.
I think you two should break up
Yupp
If I would be him, I wouldn't be even sorry. You got what you deserved. That's life for you.
Well you hit him. When you hit somebody expect them to hit back. You both sound like a bad catch
So would u have hit her back?
there's a good chance. She's a person who knows better not to hit somebody and did it twice. She knows better
You're both at fault but you hit him first...
Drunk or not. you had no right to hit him and he has no right to hit you. Drunks usually tell the truth and if he feels this way about your family I would end the relationship.
He had the right to hit her in self-defence.
He told me that the slap didn't even hurt and the punch barley hurt at all. So it wasn't self defense. why would you defend your self if something didn't hurt? and plus he said it was a reflex.
