Will a man hit you again if he's done it before?

Question

my husband has hit me numerous times in the past 3 months we have been married but not before we tied the knot. he's away on business and promises he won't do it again when he gets home but i don't know what to think about it all. do u think maybe he was just stressed and took it out on me? he can't be that kind of a man. i love him too much.

Answer 1

yes he will do it again! He's done it numerous times before you said..why stop now?? leave his ***!

Answer 2

Wrong, chances are once a man hits a woman he will surely do it again given the same circumstances. Also no man should never hit a woman no matter what and you dont have to put up with it nowadays. So now you know  but what you do with this is going to be up to you. Dont be afraid to charge him with domestic violence the next time he touches you if you decide to stay

Answer 3

He IS that kind of man and not only will he do it again but it will get worse and worse. Get help now!  

Answer 4

Yes, he will hit you. Again and again and again. I came out of a verbally and physical abusive relationship over 8 years ago. When I tried to leave. my ex blocked the door. I finally got out and got to my parent's house. He ended up kidnapping my daughter ( I got her back). He never calmed down enough. I tried to give him chances, but it never worked. I finally had to file for divorce. You both need to seek counseling. The next verbal or physical abuse he does to you, you need to leave. Do not leave while he is there. Wait until he leaves. If you do it while he is there, it may be really bad. Let me just tell you that a woman was just murdered by her husband who had only gotten physical with her a few times. Oh, and make sure you call the police and file a report. He will be less likely to do it again. And you will have a record of his behavior for your defense.

Bull c**p hon!  He likes batting you around!....leave the abusive a** or get used to black eyes and broken bones...maybe even worse!

Answer 7

leave him

Answer 8

No one has the RIGHT to hit another, except for self-defence.  

This is an especially harsh rule when it comes to marital affairs.

No husband, nor wife, has any right to hit their spouse.  If there is no consequences for their actions, they will do it again.

There are other ways for him to take out his stress, if he is stressed out.  It's unfortunate that what seems easiest for him, is to hit you.  That's absolutely wrong.  There is NO EXCUSE.

If he does it again, call the police.  He needs to learn that this kind of behaviour, even if done ONCE, is abusive and it is a criminal offence.

Answer 9

It's only a matter of when ...in addition violence only increases..get out NOW!! Staying could lead to serious /permanent injury  or even death.

He's a worthless piece..leave him before you have children...

You are much better than this..don't need or have to take another moment of fear/wondering when he'll get violent again..Let your friends and family know EVERYTHING both  mentally and physically abusive that he has inflicted upon you..

Trust me it never stops..it only gets worse..leave before that happens to you..I know men like him and they cry and beg forgiveness ..Don't be talked into staying..If need be contact a local church or family assistance group and move immediately..Women's shelters are very available to women fleeing an abuser..Use the help and counseling to  get your life back and on track

Answer 10

Yes he will, there is no excuse, stress, your behaviour, overwork for a man to hit you, you have married an abuser.  He has waited till you are married to show his true colours.  Chances are the violence will get worse and he will follow the behaviour of most abusers by isolating you from friends and family, shows excessive jealousy, checks up on you etc. etc.  Take a look at the website to see what the future holds for you.  

You are looking forward to a very miserable life for you and any children you have and if you can find the courage the sooner you get out the better.  

Answer 11

I used to be in an abusive relationship and everytime my ex would hit me his next move was apologizing to me..how sorry he was blah blah blah. Then he'd hit me again..once you hit someone it's real easy to fall into it again because it's already been done once. I went to a class on abusive relationships and they call it a cycle that abusive guys go through..they hit they say they're sorry then do it again.

I think if he's really willing to stop the hitting, you two should go to couples counseling and learn to talk through your problems together..and not use violence.  

Answer 12

he will hit you again. you're his possesion not his wife.
