or 'Id have left after the first slap'.

Domestic violence is insipid. You don't fucking know what you would do until it happens to you.

Every time I read it and I consider myself quite strong, I feel like I'm a weaker female.

You WOULDN'T fucking leave at the first slap. Statistics state that you wouldn't. So stop talking about something that you can't imagine.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged to us we like to link to our web-guides, which we hope may be helpful. If you'd like to, please do feel free to take a look at our Domestic Violence page www.mumsnet.com/relationships/domestic-violence-support

In the meantime please can we ask that when you post here you keep in mind peace, love and talk guidelines - if we have to delete too many posts, the thread will end up full of holes and we will be left with no other option than to take it down. Flowers
