I'll be honest: It floors me that anyone thinks the guy in this situation had any kind of right or reason to put his hands on the OP first. First thing I thought when I read some of these posts was, "What, were you raised in a barn?"

This is not to excuse the OP. Not by a long shot. As I said in my first post on this thread, she needs to learn to let people cool off, and she does seem to have some anger problems, herself. I also agree with those who said that once she learned of this guy's past, she'd be foolish to stick around. But even if you don't know someone's past, once he starts behaving the way he did, with the ruckus over unfounded jealousy, if you're smart, you dump him.

First, we only have the OP's version of the events. Which may be biased
Second, if someone is physically blocking one's way, I feel it is totally legit to move them out of the way.

Yes, you've made that abundantly clear. And you know what most of us think of that. So, are you going to say it again just to get the last word?

I'm just talking about the real world, Mrs. Eyeroll.

Dude comes across as a jackass in the OP's telling of the events.

She still has no right to barricade him in the room.

Actually, in some places kicking a guy in the nuts is considered sexual assault and can get you on a sex offenders list.

Physically blocking someone's exit is getting physical first.

See post 53.

Some of you folks would be very easy to victimize. You need to wise up. Never mind a well-raised man. A smart man never lays a hand on a woman in anger. As others have said, you can go on with the "false imprisonment" nonsense all you like, but the bottom line is that if man touches woman in anger first, he's the one going to jail.

So what would have done if you were him? Allow yourself to be trapped against your desire to leave, forced to listen to someone berating you and trying to get you angrier? For how long?
