In this early morning, my husband has accidentally knocked on my lip with his elbow due to his carelessness. I was bleeding and in pain. This guy just apologize and tell that it's unintentionally. After that, he has treated nothing has happened. I am still in pain and my lip have swollen. He never show any care towards me after the incident. I am so upset. What he care about is only his own work of the day! What would you do if you are in my shoe? Will you still angry at him or forgive him?

I know exactly how you feel. I guess guys are just not the type of caring people, there might be some out of a tones but I have only seen one guy who was really caring and thoughtful so far in my life. My hubby sometimes does something carelessly that hurts me too, I remember one time, he was trying hold my hands and pick me up when I was sitting on the couch, I stood up on the rug then he dragged me, I fell over on my back, that really hurt... after a while he was like nothing happened. I have talked to him before and he said he is not a girl so I should expect he cares people like we do and said something like "so you want a lesbian?" I was really really mad actually when I heard that but see , it is the other example that he is not very caring both mentally and physically. However, he is who I love so I just get used to it and accommodate everything for him. He will say sorry though when he does something like that but still not like us, I would feel terrible if I did something that hurts him carelessly like last time, I mistakenly "hit" his b a l l, I felt terrible - I don't know what it feels like but he gets hurt = I get hurt.

Yeah.. that is the kind of feeling i wish him to have too. When i hurt him, i feel hurt. Therefore, i expect him to feel hurt as well, when he hurt me and care for me like a baby.

It is very sad that your husband didn't care about you in such a situation. It might be just an accidental incidence, but he could have cared in a much better way. More than caring, love and affection does the trick that time. But never mind this incidence. Please forgive him. I am not on his side this time, but on your side in the way that I am suggesting these kind of things shouldn't really lead to spoiling of your family harmony in any way. You should forgive him, but explain him his fault and tell him to change his behavior. Explain it cool minded and with affection sometime later. I am sure he will change and your family harmony remains peaceful and Good luck for convincing your hubby.

I know what you mean. When my fiance hurts me I let him know. I expect some affection of some sort. If he doesn't hug up on me or kiss me then i tend to get more upset or agry. So yeah if he doesn't show some affection then i would certainly show how you feel.

I appreciate man whom has a enterprise,and word hard on his career.While in our daily life,this kind of person often let his lovers upset and disappoint,maybe.He possible is a careless man,so forgive him,if you always mind about this,it will bring more troubles between you.Hope you will get his care soon.

I would honestly just talk with him about it calmly. Communication is key in all relationships, including friendships.

You did say it was accidental, right? And he did say he was sorry, right? I think the fact that he said sorry meant he was sorry and he didn't mean to hurt you. Maybe he is just not the showy type.. or has he been like this ever since? Even before you got married? If he was like this ever since then you shouldn't be too surprised. There was a time my husband accidentally hit me near my eye and it became swollen too. He apologized too. I didn't get mad as it WAS accidental. of course, I forgave him. Accidents do happen. Now, if your husband did this on purpose, THAT would be a different story.

I think it is decided if he was wilful,if he is unwitting,then he applogize for his wrong,then I will forgive him,but if not,I will angry for this. However,I think if you love each other,and you know he loves you so much,then it is a little thing that may be happen between every wife and husband,so never mind that.

if you hold grudge in your heart, it will just make you feel or really make you older plus the whole day's attitude is affected. forgive him and be happy/ one time try to do it to him ha ha ha and see his reaction (joke joke joke) he might not be like you and you will just quarrel

Hmmm, we're women, and we really tend to search for care from our better halves. If I were in your shoes, I would still be angry at him. But I'll sure let him know why.
