Horrible place for relationship advice.. But I'll give it a go anyway.
Kick him to the curb.
He's obviously disrespectful. Now, I like a nice slap now and then. But that's a personal thing (and I've been with my fiance for 4 years). You've already said MANY times that you DO NOT like it. And explained why. Yet he still did it again.
Also, if HE thinks he's a loser (has nothing to offer you, doesn't think he deserves you, etc) then he's probably a loser. If he is in the mindset of being inferior, and hasn't changed anything yet, then he probably won't.
That's all I've got to say about that. </gump>
I have to agree.
If he said he had to "think" about it... What exactly is he thinking about? Whether or not it's ok to disrespect you and go against something you feel strongly about? Doesn't sound like someone I'd want to make it work with. You can't change people. They'll do as they please. I accept my husband's faults, but refuse to back down when I feel I'm right. There always has to be a middle ground. So far, he has never done anything that completely crossed the line with me and was a deal breaker. That being said, your deal breaker was made clear yet he repeatedly did it. Good luck hun.0 -
Stop beating each other up and just f**k already!
[/url]0 -
Ok, I stopped reading after you wrote that you punched him for slapping your butt. That's cray-cray!0
-
When someone says that they're not good enough for you, they are usually right. If he is already flagrantly violating your boundaries so early on in the relationship, there is no happy ending to this story. Get out now.
Also, if you are punching a guy the first time he touches your butt, then it sounds like you have your own issues to work through before getting into a serious relationship. Good luck.0 -
The wall of text hurt my eyes.
Break up.
Gonna be honest, didn't even read anything.0 -
it's been going well except the last few hang outs.
Hang-outs? Ultimations, physical violence, disrespecting, anger, rage. Oh boy this relationship sounds a whole lot of fun!
If that's not enough then analyse what he said about cheating. Afraid to cheat because he feels he doesn't deserve you!
Not afraid to cheat because he wouldn't want to hurt you, because he wouldn't want to be dishonest to you, because it's morally wrong, because of the heartache, pain, sorrow and misery it could cause, because of the risk the risk of disease, becuase you are enough for him? Oh no, just because he is insecure!
Stay with him, help him build his confidence, make him feel desirable and loved - then the day will come when he no longer feels that he doesn't deserve you........
The clock is ticking......0 -
Two things:
1. Please break your post into paragraphs, Its way easier to read
2. If thats a deal breaker, move on. Nothing worst that an insecure guy anyway.
Good luck.0 -
tl;dr
The word for today is... paragraphs.... say it with me.... pa-ra-graphs..
Jus sayin' :smokin:0 -
For me - touching your *kitten* isn't the deal breaker. The deal breaker is doing it at least two more times after you told him not to.
I'd get rid0 -

Not the fact that he wouldn't cheat only because he doesn't think he deserves her?0 -

Not every woman is OK with being touched by someone they are not MARRIED to. Sorry if people seem to think a woman / or man should just 'take it' because it's 'normal' or 'socially accepted' behavior. Punching someone in the face for a first infraction is a little much but when someone FEELS they have been VIOLATED as it is obvious the OP did then I can understand it.
Thankfully my boyfriend is good with having his butt touched since I spend a lot of time doing it but we have also been together for 3 years. He knows not to spank me because that WILL piss me off. It's a matter of comfort. Not everyone likes having their butt slapped and I don't think being in a relationship entitles someone to do anything that their partner is uncomfortable with.
To the OP... You have indicated that being touched in that way is a deal breaker and that it makes you uncomfortable. Regardless of what anyone else says/ thinks the only person who can decide this will be YOU. It is obvious that this man does not have the same set of "accepted behaviors" as you do. There is no reason for you to continue to allow someone to treat you in a way that you have made clear you do not appreciate. Set your standards and don't ever settle for someone who will not respect them.0 -
Anger Management Class ??
You punched him? SMH
A more mature way to respond is to say something and remove yourself from the situation.
Maybe you should think on that.0 -
Sounds like a dilhole. Dump him.0
-
It sounds like he flat out does not respect you. I would never be able to live with someone like that, and so it would be a deal-breaker for me, definitely.0
-
I would end it, it does sound like he has some growing up to do, and if he is not respecting on something small, if he can not respect your wishes on where he can touch you, there is a problem. Also, violence on any end of a relationship is not healthy, if you feel the need to punch him something is wrong, and he is not bringing out the best in you. You did not say how hard you hit him, but it upset him, so I am guessing it was not a playful tap.
The right person is not hard to be with and would not be upseting you like this, I think it is time to move on.0 -
OMG..........but he touched me.......no but she punched me.........your both wrong and you both need to grow up.............0
-
call me crazy but grabbing your girlfriend's butt is showing affection....at least in my eyes. it sounds like he is very attracted to you and can't keep his hands off of you. :flowerforyou:0

I don't know why women won't just let go of a bad situation. If there is something about a person that bothers you now, it's only going to get worse. Yes, it's nice to think people can change, but it seldom happens. Kick him to the curb and move on.0
-
Dump him. You told him three times not to do it, and every time he a) disrespected you and b) disrespected your boundaries. Get rid of him and find a man who'll respect you.
Btw I'm with you on the whole butt thing, my fiancé did it once and I told him never to do it again or I'd leave. He stopped0 -
He sexually assaulted you, and you punched him. This seems like a totally reasonable response. What I don't understand is why you didn't punch him the second time he assualted you. Or the third. Or the fourth, fith, sixth? No means no. Your body is yours and he has no right to touch you without your permission EVER. If he does, you absolutely have the right to defend yourself, violently if necessary. And I'm at a total loss as to why you want to be with this guy. He isn't going to change. You aren't happy being treated like this. He will only continue to escalate the violation of your boundaries. It will never get better, over time it can only get worse. My advice is get away, trust your first instint and make it a deal-breaker.0

how is grabbing your girlfriend's butt sexual assualt? SMH. people are so dramatic. :noway:0 -
Oh dear, where do I go with this one? I'm going to keep my points short.
1) Butt-touching, slapping, grabbing, etc. is not disrespectful in general. It does not make you a "possession", that is just what people do when they are attracted to each other. Pretty run-of-the-mill, as most of the men have pointed out.
2) However, this guy should respect your boundaries. And I don't like grab-assing in public either-- it's just not classy. If he knows you're uncomfortable with it in general but just can't "help himself", he could at least show you the respect of refraining from doing so in public. No argument there.
3) Don't punch men unless you think it'd be okay for them to punch you back. Come on. Unless it was playful and light... but the way you describe it makes me think otherwise.
4) Forget the whole butt touching thing. He thinks he's a loser? He's already questioning if he's going to cheat on you? He needs time to think? About what? End it now! You don't want to get caught up in that nonsense. Bad news.

seems like the first time may have been more affectionate..well that is until you smacked him. Other times may have been in a degrading manner and since you told him to stop and he didn't, well he's got to go. He didn't respect your wishes on something that then there's a chance it'll just escalate0

There is much more going on here. It sounds as though you are uncomfortable with your booty being touched, whether it has to do with how you were raised, etc...it is something you clearly do not like. While this is understandable, a man is a man and grabbing your booty is a part of a man (lol). They are physical creatures and if you are his girlfriend, he should be able to grab your booty...you dont want him grabbing another girl booty now do you???
I dont know if any sexually activity is taking place but if it is I know booty grabbing has been involved, even for your parents even if its just a small touch. Find out the real reason you dont like your booty grabbed and be honest about it, then tell him the real reason and if he doesn't respect you then then you leave, but getting angry and punching and yelling over *kitten* grabbing is unnecessary...yall are a couple. I grab my dudes butt all the time, and its something he truly doesn't care for but I know my limits while he gives me some yet I still get to enjoy myself (lol)
Dont take it so serious if you really care for this guy then find out what you can do to help this small hump because believe me it is small compared to what other guys do to their girlfriends that is really disrespect.0 -
sounds like you both hoave some growing up to do and doing it apart would be the most wise way to go.0
-
Everyone has their pet peeves. If that really bothers you and he doesn't stop then yeah I would say end it because it's obviously not something to negotiate over.. In private is one thing but grabbing your butt in public is a whole other story.0
-
First of all, it sounds like you need to work on your hang ups about the behind... I'm not saying you have to like it/allow it constantly, but if someone touches your butt, punching them is completely over the top (especially when that person is your sexual partner).
Second, he obviously needs to work on respect, since he keeps doing something that you find disrespectful.
Third, you said it yourself. You called it a"deal breaker". That means it's over. Deal breakers end the relationship, that's why they're called deal breakers.
It sucks to end a relationship, but if you're that uncomfortable with what he is doing & he isn't respecting your feelings, it's time to end it.0
