He hit me back!?
Find answers to your legal question.





He hit me back!?

I had a big arguement with my boyfriend and i got so angry that I punched him in the face. i didnt think he would do anything back but then he swung his arm round and struck me on the top of my arm and now its starting to bruise. do u think he shouldnt have retaliated because he is the man or did i deserve it??

Dude, you hit him first. How do you expect him to react. I don't care if you're a woman or not. You have no right to hit him in the face.

You are lucky. I would have sent you to jail.

Women want equality but not the responsibility. You are an emberrassment to women everywhere.

If you don't want to get hit then don't start swinging.

I always say "If you're man enough to hit a man, then you're man enough to get hit like a man!"

THIS is why women who really are abused don't get taken seriously- because idiots like you abuse men and then scream abuse when they defend themselves.

Do him a favor and leave the relationship.

Do all men (and women) a favor and don't jump into a new relationship until you're mature enough to handle an argument.

You were wrong for hitting him in the first place. Women need to stop thinking they can beat the crap out of their men and the men are supposed to just take it.

Let this be a lesson to keep your hands to yourself and be a grown-up.

My parents taught me a long time ago not to hit unless I'm willing to be hit.

Your relationship is over. Walk away.

Did you know that he could have called the police on YOU for hitting him and they would have gladly hauled you off to jail? And you punched an ANGRY man in the face and are surprised that he swung back? No man should hit a woman. And NO LADY should ever hit a man!! Why don't you keep your hands to yourself!!

YOU hit HIM first. Abuse is abuse and assault is assault.
He acted in self-defense.
I hope that you (and he) will let it go at that.

He has no right to hit you, BUT, you had no right to hit him either.

If you resort to violence, he has every right to retaliate. Just be lucky he didn't hit you in the face. That would have hurt a whole lot more.

Theres gonna be a lot of people claiming that any time a man hits a woman is wrong..and it is, but lets be clear, she hit him first and now all bets are off.

This will sound fickle, but, I've never done it, don't condone it, but you deserved it.

I'm sorry but you deserved it. Domestic abuse doesn't just happen to women, men can be victims too. What made you so angry that you lost control and thumped him? Where you testing him? Sounds like you have anger issues which you MUST resolve. Your man may have not made the best choice by retaliating but it was probably his initial instinct. Talk about with it and try not to lose control again.

You deserve it, its almost reflex, and with anger and everything...He cant be blamed to be fair

Hope you sort it out

You didn't like the first answers to your question? If you hit him first you are at fault........
It was obviously self-defense and a normal reaction....

Violence begets violence--you should apologise and make a pact not to react with hitting as a response.

Wow a punch in the face--you are brave, girl and lucky you didn't get the exact same back.

I think you need to not be together and that there is no need to hit anybody regardless if its a male or female. how would you feel if he punched you in the face. thank god he only hit you in the arm!

I think this is a tricky area. My brother in law was repeatedly beaten, punched and attacked with a variety of objects by his partner over the course of their relationship and never retaliated. His girlfriend knew that he wouldn't and so felt free to beat on him as much as she liked without any fear of getting a taste of her own medicine. I think using any form of physical violence unprovoked is wrong but I feel very strongly that women who think they can go around punching men and getting away with it are taking advantage of the fact that alot of people think 'you should never hit a woman'. If I punched a man I would expect to get it back. Women want to be considered to be equal to men in everything and so, really, can't then turn round and say 'you can't hit me back because I'm a woman.' Surely that is double standards. I think you should just thank your lucky stars that he didn't punch you in the face.

Never, ever evoke anger like that in a man unless you are prepared to back it up.

You people got drama!

No one should be laying a hand on anyone!

Go see a therapist cuz you got issues.

you had it coming. although i dont think he should have hit. but with that said what gives you the right to hit him because you were angry?


Brian Da Dog
From what your describe...he was depending himself...trying to knock your arm away so you would not hit him. In that case...he was 100% in the right.


Quasimodo
I already answered this. My first response still stands.


Ray E
Deserved it without a doubt. Why would expect 'anyone' accept physical abuse? That's what it is if you hit someone that's just supposed to stand there and take it.

you got what you deserved.weather your a woman or not .maybe next time when your pissed off you'll think twice about it.if your that mad best bet is to walk away and cool down.

What do you expect. If you hit some one they are going to hit you back. If you don't like it then don't hit anybody.
