apparently, i hit my gf while we're sleeping quite often. a few times i actually woke up because i realized i either elbowed her in the eye socket, or slapped her on the forehead. most of the time i'm either tossing/turning, or kicking due to exciting/violent dreams. she says it's ok...

Dating for 5 years, and this is the frist time violence has ever happened in any way, shape, or form?
Think about it. If it is really the first time, then it is just an anomolous incident.
It sort of sounds like it from your description of her apology.

LOL, sounds like you were drunk and said something totally out of line and deserved a slap. Especially since it really bothered her and she apologized profusely. I would give her the benifiet of the doubt and assumed I fvcked up and deserved it. Did you ever apologize for what was said?

And your co-workers are just trying to stir up the shiate, and are probably losers that can't keep a woman and would like nothing more than to see your relationship crash.

If she wound up and slugged me for real. I guarantee she's getting one back. She totally agrees as well. We've had this discussion before.

How about learn to block? Or not piss off a woman enough to get hit. And if you do get hit dont hit back. My wife could punch me in the face 10 times and I could do more damage with one blow. I wouldn't strike her unless she pulled a gun/knife on me.

She could not drink because of some meds she was on so she was the DD for the night. Obviously we all get tipsy/drunk and i make a rude comment to her. She slaps me across the face in front of everyone basically. It was semi joking because she knows i was just playing around. I joke with her a lot and she is used to it, although with other people around, she felt like she needed to do something about it i guess.

We go back home and i was fully sober about 3 hours later laying in bed and she was apologizing. Obviously, i was like, "so what? you hit me, but i am not hurt or anything". So she felt bad and she was almost crying because she was so sorry.

So anyways, she hits me and then i come into work this morning to everyone saying sh1t like "if she hits you, you have every right to swing back" and i was like "wtf?! no you dont hit her no matter what". I just wont hit i female if i can help it by any means. I am basically at work swallowing pride with them because they are ripping me a new ahole about it but i am staying in her defense.

what do you guys think and what would you do about the situation?

You're the only rational one here. Keep doing what you're doing.

I smacked my last GF in the face while I was having a nightmare once. I felt REALLY bad at the time, especially since we had just started dating. :p I was sure she'd never sleep with me again. :D Course it was hilarious later after we'd finished sleeping and talked about it.

You did the right thing. The people at work are insecure about themselves so they feel they have to make fun of you. I don't think a single one of them would say it to your face if they were alone.

If a woman kicks me in the nuts, you can bet she's going to get a nice punch to the face.

Yup...it's OK...unless it's the privates. Those need to be preserved.

If I humiliated a girl in front of her friends, I'd let her do the same back to me just to keep everything on the cool.

You'll only be made fun of if you can't stand up for your actions. It doesn't matter what you did or didn't do. If you can stand up for your actions you won't lose your man card.

a better person would always walk away with doing so, but i do not think that gender should ever come into it. A girl should never hit a guy in anger and think he cannot or should not hit her back because she is a girl. i dont think he should hit her like she is a grown man in a bar fight if the sizes are unequal, however. But hit back hard enough to let her know that he will not be a punching bag because of differing genitals.

Women wanna be equal, they should go punch for punch with whomever they raise their hands to in anger.

And that coming from a woman... that's surpisingly refreshing.

I know plenty of women, my sister and friends included, that feel that it's TOTALLY ok for a man to act in a traditional gender role stressing almost obsessive politeness towards women, but then also declare that for women to act in a traditional way towards men is absurd. I, personally, am a proponent of equality, as you are.

Heck, I remember when my 3rd-year science teacher refused to give any guys an A in his class, even though there were some of the smartest kids in the school there.

What you said will determine whether you deserved it or not. Its cool to joke alone, but in public, you can embarrass people easily.
WTF DID YOU SAY???!? TELL US NOW!!!!!:|


sorry, i am at work, so i cant monitor it that closely...

a few things to clear up...

1) i dont really care about people at work, it just made me think about it.
2) it was somewhere between a playful and meaningful hit. when she talked to me about it, she was like "after you said it, i wouldnt normally think anything about it...but the look i got from a couple girls gave me the impression of "are you going to let him get away with that?" ".
3) the comment i made was nothing out of the ordinary for me...i forget it word for word, but i am a pretty blunt person and people know i joke A LOT! It was something about her being bad in bed if i recall...which she KNEW was not true.

Saying she's bad in bed when you're obviously sleeping with her and enjoying it is not over the line imo.
