I consider myself an extremely laid back person but there have been times when I've lost control and done things I definately regretted later, my sister can tell you that, she was the receiving end of a couple of times, not that I actually hit her, thankfully she always managed to get to the bathroom and lock herself in.
On one of those occasions, I tried breaking the bathroom door down, I failed but I put a pretty hefty crack in the paintwork. I was 10 at the time. I will always look back on those times and feel ashamed, ashamed that I was weak enough to lose control like that and even more ashamed that my sister was nearly the victim.
To answer the question of the post, if I was a woman I couldn't bring myself to be in a relationship with a violent person. Just as I couldn't be with a lass who is violent (obviously, the latter occurs a hell of a lot less than the former). Even as a bloke I can't stand men who think themselves big because they beat up on their girlfriends or wives.
