      • Advice: 

        My girlfriend of about two years hit me recently and I don’t know what to do about it. This was so out of character for her and have never known her to express anger physically before. We were arguing, and the fight spun out of control. I was standing behind her talking loud and she spun around and slapped me. After the slap, I just sort of stood there, absolutely speechless. She gasped and then walked away for a minute, but came back really quick apologizing profusely. We hadn’t been drinking or anything, just a hard argument. She apologized for hours and seems genuinely contrite and is as upset about the whole situation as I am. Should I stay or should I go? I won’t tolerate an abuser. If she did it once, she could do it again.
