No, it is definitely not ok for your girlfriend to beat you up. It is never ok for someone...anyone...to hit their partner. I don't understand how someone can possibly call it love when they abuse their partner; hitting is not love, it is hurtful and potentially dangerous behaviour. I do understand why the abused partner will often stay...they may be isolated from friends, swayed by the fact that his/her partner says it will never happen again, afraid that if he/she leaves then loneliness will be the new partner. Believe me, the beating is not worth staying for any reason. If your partner truly loved you, then she would have sought help to stop her abusive behaviour towards you. You need to get out of this relationship. You will find someone new, someone who is worthy of your love and who will treat you the way you deserve to be treated. It may take awhile but it will happen. It might happen when you least expect it to happen. How do I know? Because it happened to me. Good luck my friend.

If it really hurts, you should let her know. Maybe she's just hitting you as a sign of affection?

Well, kind of a reality here in our country but, not all. Mostly girls who have grown from being boy-ish and have a hard time being girly and can't express themselves as other girls do. But bruises, after affectionate hits?! Maybe the girl's too wild that she'd go to S&M?!? Really creepy thought.. sorry.

If it's a playful tap, then that isn't such a big deal, however if she hits you constantly and it's not playful, you need to get out of the relationship. Abuse is abuse, regardless of who hits who. Leave now, get out of the relationship before things get worse.

If she hits you, maybe she has her reasons and I think you know them..

No.....I feel the same rule need to apply to a Girl/Lady the same way for a boy/man. You are a Human being and what she is doing is Not Right. Noone should take that abuse - I really hope something changes for you dont Derseve it! I wish you all the best Stacy

When you say beating you up, does that include injuries, nose bleeds, black eyes and other physical damages that leaves you weak or perhaps wailing in agony? In any case, why do you think you deserve such treatment? You did mention that you don't hit her back so, I guess you do have in a certain extent venerate her? If by beating you up, you mean a playful punch or two that she does but, in fact, really hard ones for you that you just bear for the sake of not being called a weakling? Fighting back might encourage her to hit you more I guess. Why not be evasive when she throws those blows on you? Kind'a cool if you can dodge her fists by just jerking your head or parrying them until she loses interest in hitting you. Hehehe, then there's that possibility that she's encouraging you to fight back, not just from her beating you but in relation to your reality of being submissive? To those you let take advantage of you? Think about it. ^_^

I would say it is definitely NOT ok for her to beat you up. If instances occur that she gets that mad at you, you might want to reevaluate your relationship. If this goes on and you end up having kids, she might then turn and start hitting the kids. I would say, either she stops or you leave.

its ok if your girl hits you for a reason. if you can handle it, you should be fine. sometimes, girls find ways to get your attention, specially if you guys have less quality time. but if she hits you hard for no reason at all, then you two need to talk. whether she hits you or you hitting her, theres no way for you guys to progress like that. c",)
