Default Quarreling in marriage

Me and my husband just got married (less than two months) after a little bit more than two years of being in a relationship. We had same quarrels before the marriage, but recently we had a quarrel related to a fellow worker (we work in the same firm) during our rest break. Since we were in his car, when I was leaving the car, I was so angry at him that I slammed the door and broke the window which was not my intention. He got really upset, got out of the, started yelling at me at the parking lot in front of the firm and then he hit me a couple of times.

What would you do in this situation?

Violence is NEVER an option. Sure, he should be pissed that you broke his window, but hitting your spouse doesn't fly. This is a harbinger of things to come. Walk away.

He hit you. That's not acceptable and done once it will happen again.

This doesn't bode well, and you know it. Question is, what are you going to do? Any kids? If so, seeing mommy put up with physical abuse teaches them that its OK, it must be if the parents do it/put up with it.

worse thing is that he yells at you in public, too bad. and the fact that he hit you- even woerse. let him know that you not gonna accept such treatment and i suggest that you too go for counselling and try to pray together- it will help trust me.

In that case you definitely need to let him know that its not ok. Don't ignore it, let him know how serious it is and tell him it's not something you'll put up with ever again. Make a huge fuss over it basically so that he realises how serious it is and doesn't decide its something he can do now and then.

The yelling at you in public isn't something I'd do but it is understandable, you did break the guys car...

I would leave him. Because I would never stay with a man who beat me in public in front of my job (or anywhere).

I'd leave. If he hits you once he will hit you again.

I 100 % agree with this. The first time my exhusband hit me, he was angry at me because i apparently LOOKED at a man at the store. he nagged and yelled and cursed me out for an hour. I ended up at the patio table in the backyard as my daughter was playing outside. he picked up a ball for the dog. and threw it right in my face. then said he was sorry he wasnt aiming for me. I forgave him. the next time he twisted my arm so bad i had to call in sick for work for three days. then there were more. and more. and finally he nearly killed me. I finally woke up and left.

do yourself a favour and GET OUT NOW
