Care to share the list, boomerick? For educational purposes?
I would have dumped you right there, your girl must be pretty desperate.When I came back I had written a list of conditions that she MUST abide by and never deviate from....
Also a list of behaviours that were unacceptable....(including jealousy and violence)
I let her know that any SINGLE violation of ANY of the listed items would result in my immeadiate disapearence...
Again....I agree. It would almost be like a father scolding his child to be in that situation. That is no way to have a happy, loving relationship. Why bother???zekko said:I would have dumped you right there, your girl must be pretty desperate.
There's no way I would submit to living under conditions of a written list under a threat or an ultimatum. No way.
The situation with Backbreaker's fiance appears to have been a "crime of passion" triggered by emotion. This list business was fully and cooly premeditated. I'd tell you where to stick it.
jafyk said:My 2 cents on this issue. I don't think theOP should break up with his woman but he needs to make it clear that her behavior was unacceptable and then start afresh from there. I think it's sad how people don't believe in forgiveness and 2nd chances. I think the idea of jail and prisons ar somewhat hypocritical (it's supposed to reform people but yet we don't wanna give those people a 2nd chance) so, why not just kill any offender and get it over with. In this case it's not the Op's gf is a criminal.
Zekko, you are an utterly confused man.zekko said:A guy doing this would be in jail, or at least ostracized. But here's another inconsistency. Everyone on here goes on and on about how the genders are different, a woman is not the same as a man, blah blah. Yet now all of a sudden you guys want to treat this girl as if she was a man (reverse the situation).
It doesn't matter if it's different, the law says if X happens, then that is a violation, regardless of the fact a guy committing X causes more damage than a girl committing X.zekko said:The fact is, a woman hitting a man is not the same thing as a man hitting a woman. A man could do serious physical injury to a woman because of his superior strength. A woman hitting a man is not likely to cause serious injury unless she is using a weapon of some sort. And I don't see most guys crying about getting a bloody lip, they tough it out. If a woman gets a bloody lip she'll fall apart.
I was looking at it from a relationship standpoint, not from a legal standpoint. As far as I'm concerned, I see no reason to have two sets of laws. It should be illegal to hit someone, regardless of gender. Had Backbreaker been inclined to press charges on his fiance for battery, he would have been within his rights to do so, and I have no problem with that.It doesn't matter if it's different, the law says if X happens, then that is a violation, regardless of the fact a guy committing X causes more damage than a girl committing X.

Yet you have no complaints living in a country bound by "conditions", borne through case law and social conventions, with ultimatums of imprisonment to all who violate; however, the system proves most effective in "controlling" the masses.zekko said:There's no way I would submit to living under conditions of a written list under a threat or an ultimatum.

Unfortunately he already decided on her punishment - a marathon sex fest. ..ouch, I bet that taught her a powerful lesson .jafyk said:I have not excused what Back breaker's woman did but I feel they can work things out and she should be held accountable to her actions.
When "relative morality" became popular in the past 40 years ,thanks to 'post modernist' brainwashing in colleges, the notion of 'right and wrong' descended into one of personal convenience.jafyk said:At Sold My Soul. The thing that really bothers me about the American culture is that it seems most people's sense of right and wrong is based on what the law says. Is that the only thing to take into consideration when it comes to the law. .
Zekko, the way I see it is that Boomer could have just dumped her azz and kicked her out (or walked away). Instead he decided ( albeit brutally ) to impose his will on a woman who was clearly running riot. She had abandoned all of her "goodwill" which a successful LTR requires. A raging woman is NOT someone you can "communicate" with .zekko said:I would have dumped you right there, your girl must be pretty desperate.

boomerick And I had to do it in a way that blew apart and reframed 8 prior years of wussified doormat White Knighting and got immediate results as time had run out...... So even as "brutal" as it seems said:"Brutal" was needed under the circumstances.
At the end of WW11 Japan was essentially destroyed by the Allies because it needed to be.
Now they build Toyota's there , and play baseball.....toughlove really works.
I didn't say I disagreed with your solution, I said I wouldn't put up with it myself (living under a written list of conditions from my mate). Even if my behavior had deserved it (and it sounds like your wife's did), I wouldn't have submitted to living under conditions of such a list. Maybe a female might be more comfortable with such an arrangement, who knows?boomerick said:The fact that you and others disagree with my solution.....
Not sure where you get the idea that I have no complaints. I have a TON of problems with the laws and social conventions in the US. I don't specifically object to battery being illegal however.guru1000 said:Yet you have no complaints living in a country bound by "conditions", borne through case law and social conventions, with ultimatums of imprisonment to all who violate; however, the system proves most effective in "controlling" the masses.
This is all backbreaker needs to hear.boomerick said:The whole point being that you don't always have to dump out of a relationship where you have lost some frame....
You can turn things around or fix them if you have the right tools and the will to do so....
It is possible to give her a second chance .......
Even if she was a little out of control.....
