Kicked by partner - being completely downplayed

[HarleyWoof]

During a row 3 weeks ago my partner kicked me twice . I'm a strong male (40 +) so it wasn't sore at all.but after it happened I left and immediately blocked my partner on all messaging apps as that was not acceptable to me. She turned up at my house a week later and apologied and said she was due to get therapy and that she shouldn't have done it. I accepted this and decided to put it behind us. Roll on a week and during another disagreement (instigated by her saying really nasty things about people I work with) she referred to kicking me and said she just tapped me with her foot. She has refused to take this back. I am absolutely irate, like I said if wasn't sore at all but the fact within a few days she has completely down played it really bothers me. She completely refuses to retract her tapping me with her foot comment. What do I do?

She’s showing you that her opinion of herself is more important than the connection between you. You are in a lose lose situation. She wants to see if you will buy her reality or at least tolerate her narcissism like the good little supply you are. She’ll change tack again and say she had to downplay it because she’s a victim of so many people and the world had been horrible and everyone assumes the worst of her and so on in a merry hell go round.

I’d leave that person.
Also I’d not forget I had the right to legally defend myself if assaulted using reasonable force. So if I was kicked, I’d respond proportionately by kicking them straight back (and fortunately I can kick quite hard and quite accurately).
