A wife slaps his husband....... The man must've done something wrong. He should find way to make his wife happy, maybe there's something bothering her. Is she pregnant? A man slaps his wife....... The woman should run now that she have the opportunity. The man is wicked and violent. He could go on to kill the woman someday. Narrative of my fellow gender on abuse |

If a man slaps you break his head make sure he sleeps in the hospital. He wont try it again.if you like be doing mumu until he kills you. Marriage is not a must. Ladies respect yourselves stop pushing yourselves on this men if he values you he will never hit you. #saynotoanyformofviolence 1 Like |

Life's experiences spell it bold that we have to optimally blend logic and faith Now, the optimum blend of logic and faith puts logic in front while faith leads from behind If the aforesaid is true, then an abused wife has no logical reason to remain with the husband! Gaskia! |

freshvine:I disagree with the double standard, but you should know that the average man is 50% stronger than a woman of the same weight. Men have more muscles, and women have more fat. Also, men tend to date and marry women who are smaller than them. So a woman slapping her man will generally do far less damage than a man doing the same. No physical abuse should be tolerated, but women need more protection. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

sarahade:It is not advisable for a woman to retaliate physically against an abusive man. The escalation of violence has never solved any dispute in the history of mankind, and it's particularly unwise to pick a fight with someone who is stronger than you. The best thing to do is to break up on the spot. If he is able to convince your friends and family that he is truly sorry, take him back. If he does it again, end the relationship permanently. You should not be in a relationship in which you live in the fear of what your partner might do to you if you say/do something he doesn't like. 12 Likes 4 Shares |

No abeg. leave him and stay single for about a year dating other people and enjoying your life. If he changes his way and comes begging, you can forgive him and get back, if no, go on with your live and choose a better man next time. You can divorce and get marry as many times as you want as long as you are not the cause of the problem. A wife abuser ain't worth the stress. you need to be really happy for yourself. 1 Like |

.... for richer for poorer, in sickness in health UNTIL DEATH DO WE PART.... why do people keep quoting this oath that is NOT in the Bible period? In fact, the Bible warned against swearing before God because you cannot guarantee you can keep that promise...so in essence when we swear at the altar we are telling a bold lie. @topic... @Op... no matter the explanation... you are firm in your belief than once the word abuse Is used then that is enough grounds for divorce. Abuse is a word the meaning of which has been greatly abused. .... a father bathing his 2 year old daughter dare not touch her private... sexual abuse/ a husband rebuking his wife for coming home drunk... verbal abuse/...husband not buying his wife a 2016 Mercedes G Wagon for her birthday so she can keep up with the Jones'...emotional abuse. This is all abuse...and in your book..grounds for divorce... abuse is abuse. 1 Like |

repogirl:I said nothing - simply presented a reading of scripture. Whatever any pastor - or their spouse - of any name,standing or repute amongst men does, that does not change the scriptural writ. If you have a different reading or interpretation, feel free to present it - with reasons. And, should anyone prefer to predicate their Christian walk on the life of "pastors or their spouses", again, they are free to do so. My position remains as is, unless anyone can show otherwise.

say no to domestic violence I prefer divorce to abuse, if u have an inkling of what this abused women go through! they are emotionally traumatized, finally they lost themselves in the process of succumbing to such inhumane degradation!!! they are mentally disturbed!! dear ladies is better to opt out of every abusive relationship to avoid stories that touch in the nearest future. by the way, for ur health concerns, wellness e.t.c you can ask questions pertaining to ur health issues on my blog at diiverexii. #saynotoabuseladies 2 Likes |

Re: Is Abuse An Acceptable Reason For Divorce? by peculiar32(f): 10:00pm On Oct 11, 2016 |
no oo. the wife should stay till the husband kill her..N all those people quoting till death do us part don't know what they are talking about. .Is it physical death or emotional death?...the day the husband raise his hands to beat his wife that marriage is already dead..If he love his wife he will not do anything to hurt her. it would be wise for the wife to leave that marriage...she can pray for the husband to come to his senses n turn from his wicked ways. Most women stay in abusive marriages probably because they are not financially stable..That is the reason why women should be empowered to be independent. 2 Likes |

Bollinger:Remove your self from danger by all means - and I wouldn't wait for a divorce to come through before doing that. But scripturally, marriage is until death do part. You can remain separated for as long as it is wise to do so, all the while seeking healing and reconciliation. If you cannot reconcile or choose not too, you are not free remarry as long as your spouse remains alive. That is the position whether you term it separation, living apart or legal divorce. And for the record, the bible is clear on the conduct expected from husbands and wives - it does not allow, prescribe or condone abuse. If you are not a Christian, do as you please. Do so even if you call yourself one, but the scriptures are clear. TV |

Seun: Oook by the time hes unconcious he can retaliate. I dont need strength to over power anyone i just have to know what im doing. Im making him unconcious so when next he wants to hit his next wife he'll think twice. Once anyone start abusing me physically my brain automatically switches to self defense mode. |
