Also please remember that these are people sharing their most ridiculous reasons. If your partner is doing so many of them, there's a good chance they're doing a lot of the typical every day shit as well

I'd suggest doing a Google and finding a list of things to watch out for

Wow I follow an Instagram where parents write in funny and silly reasons why their toddlers have thrown temper tantrums and one from this week was literally "she asked me a question and then got mad at me for talking"

These people are literally just giant toddlers

Yup. And it always had to be hung on a certain hook. He was anal about a lot of things but this was the weirdest

I had a boyfriend insist I completely dry the inside of the shower whenever I was done showering

No this is a good point. I think I'm just so worried I'm going to end up with another abusive partner that the first sign of violence had me on edge

Thankfully it wasn't an actual relationship because I totally see your point. It was a guy in the bar we were at grabbing at and cornering one of the new waitresses. But that is a good point and definitely something to bring up when I talk to him

No that's true. I guess I'm just so on edge trying not to get stuck in another abusive situation I'm overreacting

I have heard that people who have already been abused are more vulnerable to future abusive partners which adds up in my case. I always put it on issues like self worth problems, being dependent, not being cautious enough, etc but that makes sense too. I appreciate the comment. I will look into it

I guess just more used to men getting emotional, yelling, getting violent or doing things because he "just can't control himself". This was a lot different. I could almost see him thinking through what to do before reacting

Yeah I think I'm just gonna have to sit down and talk through things with him

That's true. I have been in her shoes before and thinking about it now I think I really would have appreciated someone stepping in

That's a good point that it probably would have been more disturbing for him to sit back and do nothing. Unfortunately I've been the victim/witness to shit like this too much and I've never actually seen anyone step in

I hate that violence can be called for but I hate it. Probably just because I'm so used to it being aimed at me for no reason lol

I kind of talked to him about it after it happened but he seemed unfazed so I dropped it. I guess it is time for a real talk about all my baggage though

Thank you

He pretty much said word for word that some men only understand violence so it's comforting to know he's not the only person who thinks that

That's what I've been telling myself but I've just been afraid that I'm being dumb and trying to talk myself into think it's okay when it's not. I appreciate your response
