I believe it to be true. It happened to me, but I was provoked. You know just the usual arguing with the girlfriend, swearing and whatnot, didnt raise my voice at all either. But she came in the living room where I was eating lunch and threw a cup of ice tea all over me. I lost it, needless to say. I still feel terrible to what I did and what had happened. We are really good friends now and do stay in touch. I actually kept my running gear away from her, always denying it and saying no im not doing anything. Well, I finally told her I was.. My philosophy was she was lying to me, so Ill lie to her about this. It was something she didnt need to know about. Now, If it gets brought up with anyone I go out with..Im completely honest, if they ask me Ill say yea Ive used it before, or I am using right now. Honesty seems to be the best policy for me. Ive been completely honest with the girl Im seeing now, she doesnt like it by all means, but she knows....Everything seems to be under control. That bad situation only happened once, and It wont happen again. Who wants to be known as someone who beats up on woman, thats a terrrible reputation to have.
