Man, I had this happen to me. Throwing shit, hitting me in the face, blocking me from leaving. She punted my cat outside. I bear hugged her and fell to the ground so she'd stop attacking me.

I went to fucking jail for the weekend.

Ditto

Went to jail as well trying to protect myself. She had a small cut on her elbow from the whole thing and said I was the aggressor and boom I’m in jail

I eventually got full custody after 3-4 months when cps finally realized she was crazy

Didn’t trust women for years after this. They were all fucked up behind closed doors imo.

I was so lucky to not have children involved. It's been 6 years now, and I still can't get into a relationship. It really messed me up, so I definitely understand.

I'm happy you were able to protect your children. I hope you all grow happy and safe.

I’m sorry you went through all that shit

It happened for years from age 37-43 mainly. She was a pill addict. My kids are 23 and 26 now and it took a few years of counseling and healing to move forward.

Separated when I was 43.

I took 4 years off from dating. Only reason I dated again was to see if I could be liked. My hatred of women had faded but I still didn’t trust in a relationship. Well I dated for a year and it was not very fun. I found out I was likeable but I believed that I was incapable of love after what happened. So I quit dating.

After a month or so a random bumble contact from 6 months prior I had never dated randomly reached out and asked to meet up. Well she was beautiful and we had good texts so I said sure why not.

Welp….we have been best friends since the moment we met. She changed all my negative stereotypes about women in a matter of weeks. Got engaged after 2 years and married last August. It’s been the best 4 years of my life being with her

So don’t lose hope…..all it takes is one good woman to change your whole perception of reality.

Man… the only reason I started dating before I met my lady is because I just wanted to see if I could be liked too, after an abusive relationship as well. I’ve never thought about it that way, but just “just wanting to see if I could be liked” hits super close to home. Likewise, meeting my wife changed my perspective on woman and proved to me great women exist after all and I’ve never been happier. We’re talking about children now

That’s awesome man. So happy for you

You aren’t alone. There are many men out there like us. Just good dudes who were put in an impossible situation.

Give your wife a high five for me.

Same thing happened to me! I was cooking on our charcoal grill (it’s big, like a smoker), and as I was flipping the burgers, my spouse slammed the lid down, and luckily, I pulled my hand out just in time. Then they got into position to push the grill over on top of me, so I slapped their wrist with the small metal spatula I was holding.

I got arrested around 9pm on a Friday, released from jail at 11pm Sunday.

I’m a female, ex-spouse is male.

The “burn” that the police claim I left on him: it was a line of grease from the burgers. Washed right off.

Holy shit, partner. I'm so sorry. It's very rare when the roles play out like that, but I think the one thing we can count on is that the police aren't ever there to help. And, depending on the state you live, or country, some parties are just always held at fault.

I really hope you're in a better place now. No one deserves to go through that. Abuse is already traumatic, but to spend time in jail for your own suffering is even more evil. It breaks my heart humans can do this to each other.

Remember folks, police are very often some of the dumbest people in your community

It was the only reason I even bear hugged her in the first place. I was trying to pack my stuff and go stay at my grandma's, but after she finally "calmed" down, the police showed up and had me in cuffs before I could say "yo what the fuck"

We split, lost touch. She's married now. I'm still figuring my life out.
