Slapped by him but still could forgive him.

Its not all his fault. I slapped him on his face in the first place and he was stunned and slapped me back. I never thought this could happen to me especially at the time of my pregnancy, yet still i tried and could forgive him now. I should not have lost my mind at the very beginning. Could you?

If you slap him then you cannot blame him for slapping you all the best, urban

In your condition, i would say that men are in no position to physically hurt women, even if the woman did the first move, like what you did and slapped him... it was uncalled for if you ask me for him to slap you back. You must have your reason to slap him... and that we do not know... but by the looks of it.. for me... when we fight with our partners, there should be no reason for them to get physical. for one... I would really think twice regarding this... i am not all for men who hurts women... there is no reason even if he was stunned, with this you would have known how he is, or what kind of a person he is by the way he react to things quickly without him having to think about the situation.

I am not sure how you can say that there is something huge to forgive him for, when you were the one who slapped him first. You shouldn't have done that, and he was just stunned by it and chose to slap you back as a split second reaction. There is no way that you can complain about it when you did exactly the same thing just moments before hand. Your relationship should be based on mutual trust and love, and this means that you shouldn't be violent towards each other. A woman hitting a man is just as bad as the other way round, and I don't know why people get worked up when it's the other way round but not when it is the man who is the victim.

THere is no reason to slap anyone, let alone your husband. Of course he slapped you back! You told him with no words that this was a reasonablt behaviour. What you did bot think was that he is probably stronger than you and that from now on, unless you talk it over, it will be part or the way to replace words when you don`t agree. I never slapped my husband in my almost 40 years of marriage, although we disagreed several times on many things.

I don't think I could ever forgive a man who slapped me. Women are more fragile, we do not have their physical strength, and they should not take advantage on this. On the other hand, I can understand a man if he hits a girl, sometimes... They just lose their temper. If it does not repeat, maybe it is ok to forgive. You can forgive a lot of things when you are in love...

Hi 345042441, Losing one's temper can make one do things that one will regret subsequently. Being angry is not good especially for oneself. It's easy to say control your temper but it's very hard to do. Sometimes it may be in the 'genes'. However that does not mean that nothing can be done. Anger can be managed if you seriously want to do it. Anyway, what has been done is done. Perhaps you could offer an apology if you felt that what you did was wrong. In any case move on and be wiser and calmer the next time such incidents occur.
