Second Chance?

If your partner hit you, would you forgive them and give them a second chance? Or would that be 'it' - the end?

From experience, once is enough.

Nope, that would be it for me. I value myself and my happiness too highly to risk it happening again. I would feel like I would constantly have to be walking on eggshells, just in case I did something to cause it to happen again, and that's no way to live.:j Debt Free 27.07.2011!! :j0

For me, it would very much depends on the circumstances too. If it was as a result of an argument where I was totally in the wrong and provoked him beyond the bounds of normal patience then I would accept some responsibility for what happened.0

From experience, it is never once.
I would forgive him but then walk away.
Assuming it is a he, and that it wasn't a jokey slap on the back or something.Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
[STRIKE]depends if he was fit and had lots of money ...[/STRIKE].....
seriously , when you say he hit you in what circumstances ... if it was a punch for a pinch and a punch for the first of the month then i would just hit them back but if it was domestic violence kind of situation then you have to get rid because he/she will not change no matter how much they tell you they love you

No, no second chances for this. I'm convinced that if it happens once it's going to happen again. I don't think any amount of provocation from a partner excuses hitting them, and I wouldn't want to be with someone who thinks it's okay to be violent under any circumstances.0
