My husband said he would take me anywhere I wanted to go since he hit me last night. What should I ask for?
Find answers to your legal question.





My husband said he would take me anywhere I wanted to go since he hit me last night. What should I ask for?

Okay, my husband came home very angry last night b/c of things at work and when I asked him what was wrong he hit me, but when I started to cry he apologized and held me and said he would make it up to me by taking me anywhere I wanted to go. He said we could go out to eat or he could take me to a store and buy me something. I'm so excited b/c I usually don't have this kind of oppurtunity!! I don't know want to ask for too much or else he might not offer this again, you know? But I do want to do something fun or get something nice!!! What should I choose?

P.S.- My husband wasn't really at fault b/c he is taking these drugs right now that I think make him more aggressive.

The thing I would ask for is A DIVORCE. There is no
excuse for being violent. Ever. Period. But you'll stay with him and keep making excuses every time he hits you. You'll
say it's not his fault. Fine. Do it. But don't look for sympathy from us later, ok?

Honestly, if this is a lie this is a VERY serious topic to be making light of. Consider if a family member was abused by her husband, how would you feel?

If this is true, like the others said,,,,,you are very ignorant to believe this is normal behavior. You need serious mental therapy TODAY!

I do hope it was 1st and last time that he hit u. to answer ur question ask for a spa treatment to heal those bruises.

When your husband hit you, he crossed the line. For a man to actually hit a woman is strongly indicative that he needs to see a therapist to resolve these anger issues in himself. For you to excuse his actions is NOT helping him. He will do it again and again unless you help him to see the consequences of his actions. Imagine if you struck your child. The child would say "mommy, I forgive you!" but would carry the scar of being hit for many years. You would not have learned anything from the experience, for one that anger when displayed can be emotionally traumatizing and physically traumatizing to others. Sticks and stones break bones. If you cover for your husband, you are not helping him to be a better person. The next time you are hit by the one you love who says he loves you, call the police and have him arrested for battery. Before a court judge, he will have to face the consequences of what he's done, possibly get some court ordered therapy. When we were little, our parents taught us the consequences of our decisions and that made us better people. Don't prevent your husband from being a better person by enabling aggression. He will never become a better person if you block his learning process to make him a stronger person emotionally. Yeah, life hurts. But we don't have to hurt others. That's what God created tears for, and arms to hold you and people to hug you. We do not strike out in pain, for this is a selfish action to bring our pain to others and in doing so, your husband wanted to share it with you. I would not wish my own pain on anyone I loved and if I do, I will be gentle with them. I am a clergy abuse survivor, so I know full well experientially in a different way, how much abuse can hurt. Be well. Please take care of yourself and help him to face his actions. Turn down the dinner. He should take you out to dinner because you are a beautiful person, not because he has guilt about hitting you.

You covered you him> On drugs punched you out> Gave him a pass> There is no excuse for him hitting you> He is being nice as he know he would go to jail> So why wouldn't he be nice>Unless you want this reperted>Leave> If you stay don't complain when it happens again>Don't be fooled>

Ask for a car to drive you to the police station to get a restraining order.

Ok - That is different.
Here's the choice:
when he slap you on the face - go to mc donalds
when he kicks you on your *** - go to arby's
when he do double kick and slap - go to curvers
when he pulled your hair - go to white castle
when he puts knife on your body - do you think you can still think where do you want him to treat you?

(if you notice the above, they are all UNhealthy fastfood chains because you are in UNHEALTHY relationship)

Geez..

the only treat you're getting here is...
he's TREATING you badly and your reward is pack-up your bags and leave the abuser.

Wake-up girl!!!!

Not really honey....ask him to take you to the nearest Womens Shelter.......and kiss him goodbye.

If he hit you once he will do it again and it will keep getting worse until he probably kills you.

Do you want to die young?

Tell him to take you to a lawyer, there is no excuse for hitting you, what will happen the next time he has a bad day at work

If your husband isn't at fault, who is? Boy if he breaks your arm do you get to go to Disney Land? A broken leg gets you to Vegas? Broken nose and arm... whoo hooo.. Paris here I come? I can't believe you are excited about going anywhere because your husband hit you?? If he hit you over this, watch out for what comes next.

If my husband hit me he would get murdered in his sleep.

A one way ticket to divorce court because if out happened once it will happen again.


mom
Wake up, little snoozy!

There is no excuse for physical violence. NONE. Period.

If he even threatens to hit you again, you need to call the Domestic Violence hotline in your town. (look up the number
in advance, just in case).

I am sorry for your troubles. Be Strong!

You should go get a divorce. There's NO excuse for a man hitting a woman! NO EXCUSE WHATSO EVER! If you stay with him, you're foolish girl!


Ms. GTO
My foot...his a*s...they should meet.

His foul mood is no excuse for him hitting you....so tell him to show himself the front door!!
Quit making excuses for this guy, he's only going to do it again.

Take him to Troll City - because you are the mayor.

So why are your questions private? My guess - you've run this troll at least a dozen times.

I think your a troll....but thanks for the 2pts

A lawyer's office/police station. There's NO excuse for abuse. Work, medication, traffic, salt, videos, coffee too hot, coffee too cold, etc. These are not good reasons.


Who Knew?
Ask him to take you to the court house so you can file for a divorce and and a restraining order.

I don't give a rat's @ss what drugs he is on....I would ask for a divorce.

It is NEVER ok to hit anyone..man or woman!!!

You should ask for a divorce!

Divorce. One word says it all.


jenisilly80
what the hell are you thinking. once a guy hits you, he'll do it again and again. there is NO excuse. how dare you forgive him. What are you going to do the next time he does it? a trip can't fix abuse or a black eye. have some self-respect and protect yourself.
