Ask a Man 17 Nov '25: 'My partner gets out of control when we fight.'

Anonymous and his partner have been together for about 6 years now.  When he entered this relationship, he already had 4 children from his previous relationships, they initially agreed that they didn’t want to have more kids but they now have two children together.  His issue is her style of dealing with conflict in their relationship as she gets physically and verbally violent.  The first time she got physical with him, he said to her that he would leave her if she reacts that way again, however, they got into a fight recently and she got physical again and even insulted anonymous’ first born son.  She went away after this fight but she’s now back home and he is struggling to forgive her and move on.
