Some women would have also sent him to prison for that. Spitting on someone? That is basically assault.

This is obviously a dumb thing to do, but I'm getting sick of all this "...to a woman" stuff. No. Don't do it to either gender. Spitting on a woman isn't any worse than spitting on a man.

I went on with my regular business that day and then I was like, hmm, why are all these balloons and flowers here...

...And then I was like, OH **** IT'S VALENTINES DAY.


It happened to me.

At the same, it's Valentine's Day. It means nothing to me as people should express their love for someone on more than this one day.

Another thing is my family (even my parents) adored her and sometimes even treat her like a daughter. If I told them what happened, I'm not going to get another but verbal bashing esp from my father. He feels strongly about men that disrespect women and I feel terrible for dissapointing him.

To have an idea of how strongly he feels with that topic, when I was about 13, I recalled seeing him beat the living deadlights out of this guy that was punching his gf. He actually broke that man's nose and bruised him up, then he filed charges. I told him how maybe the beating the was too.
Old man: Not for me. I'll beat one when I see one. Don't ever let me catch you doing that, you understand?

Anyway what can I do to win her back? I'm already feeling bad and don't need any more tongue bashing and him making me feel like the worst loser. I just want her to know I'm really sorry I acted like that.
All you can do is give her space. Let her come back to you.

I wonder why you chose to go that route. The fact that this was even an option for you would be my concern. There are few things worse than spitting in someone's face. It communicates utter disgust. If I did that to someone, I wouldn't care if they never forgave me because I'd want them gone.

I'd say let it go and try and learn from it. Sometimes, pushing for forgiveness does more harm than good. You may have to find a way to forgive yourself without her. If she wants to forgive you at some point, let her come to you. But it sounds like she's done.

It's best to move on, learn to be a better person, and not make contact with this girl.

And your dad won't be happy at all. I know if I ever struck a woman he'd want to beat my ass too.
Unfortunately, my dad is the type to strike a woman. If my grandad was alive and saw what my Dad was doing to his daughter...

My grandad was a bad ass as well, he wouldn't tolerate that.

I won't either.

First of all, you have a really special father. As for the girlfriend, you may have to just give her another two weeks or so of space without pressuring her to accept your apology right away. She is not ready. Then send her flowers and maybe chocolates too, with an apology note and a promise not to do it again. Then cross your fingers. Assuming she takes you back, definitely remember her birthday and assuming it works out for a longer term relationship, definitely circle February 14 on your 2014 calendar, too.

I'm just sorry she couldn't find the heaviest object she could pick up, cast iron skillet possibly, and smack the hell out of you. I have never laid a hand on a woman and never plan on it. And I will never be stupid enough to spit on a woman.
