The first time my husband attacked me was when my daughter was 3. I was scared to leave with a small child and he had convinced me that it would never happen again. About a year later it did happen again. He talked me out of leaving. This turned into a constant cycle until my daughter was nine and he attacked me, strangled me, beat me, and left me for dead in my house. My daughter found me and called 911. He is now serving 15 years in prison for trying to kill me.
I was convinced for years that it would never happen again. It always did though.
I am certain people can make mistakes and have it be a one time deal because someone pushed them too far. I know most abusers never change though. In fact they get bolder with time because they know you are not going to leave - you will be there tomorrow and take it again and make excuses for their behavior.
Just be careful. Women die from this all the time in this country and no one knows. Domestic Violence is still a hush-hush topic in this country and it shouldn't be. There is so much of it and no woman EVER deserves to be hit.

It really depends on what you mean exactly by attack. I'm not a professional but if he forced you to have sex when you very clearly said no, that is not right, and I would say he has issues that you don't need to stick around to help work out. If the situation was not really clear then maybe it was just that one time. Were you truly scared? if so, get out now. If not, maybe counseling could help. Good luck and God Bless.

Depends on why, external issues, personalities etc. People can make mistakes.
If once and there is true remorse , extenuating circumstances , desire to change, shock at his own actions, and (not one of but all) real understanding of the reasons - perhaps.
If once and blaming you, not accepting responsibity, no remorse, threats, or imtimidation - it will happen again.
Happens twice - there will be a third time.

Yes, absolutely, once an abuser attacks once, he will almost ALWAYS do it again, and more freqeuntly. Usually, the abuse is more severe that the time before also. The only way to stop the abuse, is to get away from the abuser!

It is a fact that when some people result to abuse of their partner that it will happen again and only progress in violence. Seek help and get this under control before something more serious happens next time.

Yes, and believe me, it will be worse and worse and worse. Domestic violence is a deal-breaker. Get out now, get a restraining order, and a vicious lawyer. Call the police immediately if he even raises his hand to you. It is also a crime to pull the phone out of the wall during a 911 call. This guy, whoever he is, deserves to be in jail!

yes it always happens again no matter how many promises he makes, as it has something to do with himself, and his anger. he just can't handle stress or problems, and is often times very controlling, he tries to control u because he really has no control over much else. get away from abusers unless u like to be used as a punching bag.
