I don't think he should of taken so much abuse.He should of just done something to scare her so she would stop.

I'm proud of him for having self-control. It takes courage to put up with abuse when every fiber is screaming for revenge and retaliation that would be so easy to mete out.


Wow.

That young man is a true martial artist in every sense of the term.

guess so,but being a martial artist means being able to apply self defense when needed.

It's also knowing when not to use your physical skills, and sometimes that's even harder to do.

Very good article. My respect goes to "L" for his self-control and indomitable spirit in the situation. This one should be put into Black Belt magazine in my opinion.

I agree. He reacted in a mature manner when anyone I know would have "decked" the girl.

I think he displayed awesome self control. It is sad that it happened over such a long period of time. In this day, he would have been the one who would have been punished for striking a girl. That is just how it is. Even if he was screaming self defense. It has been 2 years since this article was written. I wonder how things worked out?

Something like this happened to me, accept it went a very different way:

I'm in highschool..a freshmen, and another girl that I didn't know was always hitting me and doing obscene things like spitting water on me.

I told my dad, he just said stop being a wuss. (figures)

So I decided to try a little reverse psycology, everytime she did something mean, and said she didn't like me, I just said "The more dislike me, the more I like you."

What do you know, she's my girlfriend now.

P.S. Very nice story, correlates to my signature in a way.

"The more you dislike me, the more I like you."
