WIFE’S NAILS TOO LONG, ACCIDENTALLY SCRATCHED HUSBAND’S KKJ & HE SLAPPED HER

I accidentally scratched my husband’s private parts, and he hit me in the face.

I really didn’t mean to. We were laying in bed, and I was kissing him, and he got hard. So I grabbed his waistband to check, well, you know…

But I have long natural nails, and accidentally scratched him down there. He immediately slapped me upside my face hard enough.

I tried apologizing and I told him over and over I hadn’t meant to scratch him, but he never apologized for hitting me.

This isn’t the first instance of violence he’s shown, and I’m an extremely passive person.

I just don’t know what to do, or how to keep this from escalating when I never intended to hurt him.

I’m sorry that I did, and I never would on purpose, but it really bothers me that his first instinct is to lash out physically.

Netizens’ comments

1. My wife of 13 years has accidentally injured me a couple of times and, other than tease her about it from time to time, I have never injured her back. Anyone that strikes a loved one in retaliation is not a good person, by any measure.
   Hit the door and count yourself lucky that it only ended with one blow… this time. You cannot take the chance of giving him an excuse to strike you again. And, if you have children, you cannot let him take out his irritations on them.
2. I have accidentally hurt my partner in the balls a few times and not once in 3 years has he hit me.. Not even a love tap. He has hurt me accidentally play fighting and as soon as I say ow he stops and apologizes and even kisses where he hurt me.
3. Leave him. I’m astounded you need to ask. Actually, kick him out. You shouldn’t need to leave, he should. He’s toxic.
4. No, this is NOT NORMAL, OP! It was an accident. Accidents happen, and this was a very minor one. It’s not like you bit down and or like clawed his balls in a vice grip.
5. Wtf!! Sounds like he was waiting for an opportunity to give you a smack honestly! That’s mad.
