For not everyone is fortunate enough to find a goodpartner.
Some might even get stuck with the wrong person.
And so is the case with Reddit userLast_Invite155,whose girlfriend physically mistreated him on more than one occasion.
He tells us that he was returning from aroad tripwith his girlfriend and friends.
When she said that they couldnt, he just replied with a plain, old okay.
She started whisper-fighting with him and he just froze.
He informed us that whenever she went nuclear like this, anything he did or said just worsened things.
And to avoid that, our poster chose not to react and stared straight ahead.
Well, Little-Miss-Angry had a problem even with that.
She grabbed his face and snarled in his face, Look at me when Im talking to you.
Sounds terrifying, right?
Imagine being in OPs shoes!
He went on to tell us that this wasnt the first time that this had taken place.
She had also aggressively grabbed his arm in the past.
He gave her anultimatumthat if she ever touched him in anger again, he would end things.
When he vented on Reddit, people were simply outraged by her behavior.
Physical violence may disrupt sleep patterns and has been linked with insomnia.
After understanding the psychology behind things, we know why Redditors were so concerned about the poster.
Some people also claimed that if it had happened twice, it would definitely happen again.
And who knows, she might cause some serious injury to him in the future.
Theres no guarantee of his safety in the relationship.
Another thing folks talked about was how it would have been perceived differently if their roles were reversed.
In the US,1 in 9 menexperience extreme physical violence from their partner.
So, when men face physical violence, it should not be ignored.
It looks like the posters girlfriend has to work through all these things instead of acting violently.
