I have a huge question, Why do guys hit woman. I have been in two relationships where I was hit. The first was 10 years ago, I was married to my daughter father. I thought thing where going good, when he started beating on me. I did everything i could to make him happy. He broke four of my ribs and beat my face. I left but I always ask Why. And then just about two months ago I left a year long relationship. My boyfriend never raised a hand to me bafore, he got put in prison and was releaed 9 months later. during this time he asked his friends to help me with anything I needed until he got out. Well when he got out he said di was cheating on him. I never even thought about it. He was out three days when I went to see a close friend of years, when i got back he said that I was seen at a motel with a guy.
Not even close to anything like that. Next thing I know I was getting hit. I caled off our wedding one month before the date we were going to get married and moved to be with my family. I thought we were soulmates. But Again I aask the question why did I do wrong to get hit.
So please why do you men hit us??????

oh dear you poor thing, I guess it probably has to do with ego,pride,power and anger management, men are so strong in some ways and yet so weak in others, I am sad that this has happened to you, I hope it doesn't mess up your mind and heart for the future...Goodluck to you.

Thank you, and no these bad times have not effected my mind or my heart. I still do have hope that one day I will find my soulmate, and things will be just as i hope. I have a wonderful family and a great daughter to help me through all this. I would be so lost if it was not for them.

It's not all men but you've had it tough so i understand your feelings.
You've picked some bad apples so far but don't ever blame yourself for the abuse you've taken,that is what these individuals want you to think.
Don't let these bad experiences knock your self confidence.I hope you find your soul mate soon.

Makes them feel empowered because they are lacking is self esteem

the simple answer it they don't respect women. the long answer is that they have underlieing issues of self respect and selfworth and they have to control everyhting in their lives, including the people in it. When a man hitsa woman he basically stops seeing her as a person and sees her as his property. He feels that if he can put the blame for all his problems onto his "woman, then he is not at fault for everything that has gone wrong. Sadly, abuse often starts or esclates after a jail term, because they have been in absolutely no control whatever.If you want to stop finding these men, you should go to counselling.
