Why do men become so violent with the ones they LOVE.???

If you truely love someone, how can you ever want to bring harm to them???
Is it that for too long society has told us that men dont cry, that men dont even emotions, and that these emotions get bottled up inside and end up poping, causing men to suffer breif bouts of insanity???? Is it that men fear their emotions and have no understanding or way to control how they feel??? Is it due to other scenarios that they have created in their own minds, and need to act out and blames to justify their own bad behaviour??? How much does it have to do with society, families, cultures, media and myth??? I wish I could answer these questions and help all the men in the world. Just think how much suffering would cease over night, how much stress and worry, how much pain and fear, HOW MUCH LOVE COULD RISE UP AND TAKE THEIR PLACE.

In my opinion if a man hits a woman or indeed a woman hits a man there is no love there its more of a dependency, If anyone truly does love their partner no matter how angry, the thought of hitting them would be far from their mind.

I disagree, i think certain emotions are powerful enough to out manouver love, love is very soft, sensitive, so if great fear or anger etc arises i think it can truely blind people momentarily, and they do things they thought were far from their mind

hmm ok, if it happens more than once maybe even twice, but becomes a daily or weekly event, surely this isn't a moment of blindness through great anger or hurt?

Hmmmmm if it becomes a habit then no, because if it happens that frequently, then id have to question the persons integrity and honesty, If it happened that often surely you would be able to see that you have some kind of problem, and would seek help

you would think that they would seek help but in many cases the person being hit is blinded by love of the other or maybe scared, hoping/trying to change the other person.
As for the violent partner many cases the don't see there is a problem, so won't seek help.

Hmmm the blind leading the blind, i think thats very sad for both cases, i do know that in some cultures its still acceptable behaviour, and i think we need more people to stand up and speak about their experinces

Well, I've have given this quite a lot of thought. I have discovered for myself one scenario actually does not have anything to do with love or the one I love.... It happens that a certain moment during the day I feel pressured into something I didn't like or didn't want to do. That agression festers inside and explodes later in the day, usually with someone close to me. Simple example: I order food in a restaurant and they bring me not what I ordered. I accept but not really. A feeling of frustration remains. Later in the day I have a misunderstanding with my wife.... I snap at her unreasonably, accumulated frustration pours out. Since I have learned to recognize these moments and will not accept what I don't want to accept. If I truly can its ok, otherwise I must speak up.

Ahhh this is very common when people hold onto negative feelins/emotions I think this is what happens with a lot of men that they are unable to or unwilling to vent the dissatisfaction with something in their life, but are afraid to express themselves as they done want to be percieved as "emotional". I think the reason why we lash out at the ones we love is that they are an easy target and we know there wont be any serious consequences, and they are always around
