Hey guys. Just looking for some advice.
My girlfriend and I have had troubles in our relationship for a while now and yesterday it took a nasty turn.
The problem is that when she gets mad she starts throwing tantrums and it gets violent. There has been violent tendencies before. Shoves, elbows etc.
Now it's punches, smacks, scratches and kicks. It obviously doesn't hurt that bad, but I can't hit her back. She wants me to, so that she can have an excuse she keeps coming at me almost chasing me around the apartment.
When we fight, I usually go quiet and try to calm her down, to no avail. She can scream SOLVE THIS, you're a bum, a looser you won't amount to nothing, you won't have kids and worst of she screams that I'm assaulting her while she's hitting me. When I try to explain myself she just resorts to screaming and doesn't let me talk. I can't live like this any more.
What should I do?
I'm absolutely powerless. I can put her through a wall if I want to but I'm going to be the one to suffer consequences if that happens.
