Yes, in both directions.
The physical shit started early on. We were arguing one morning early in the marriage and I did something dumb and stupid (which 19 y/o girls are prone to do) and dumped raw scrambled eggs over his head. He turned around and literally decked me (fist to the eye). I walked around with a black eye for more than two weeks.
After that I made sure he never got the first hit in and I went for pain. I've broken plates over his head, took a baseball bat to him, and the last fight I had him on the ground beating his head against concrete and would have busted his skull open if someone hadn't stopped me.
For his part he's thrown me so hard I hit a piece of furniture and split my shoulder open, he gave me numerous bad bruises and came very close to choking me to unconsciousness on several occasions. Between us we destroyed several pieces of solid furniture, put holes in plaster (not wallboard) walls, and wrecked numerous doors, not to mention a ton of destroyed glasses, plates, bowls, etc.
But for some reason whenever I said I wanted a divorce he threatened to kill me and then himself, go figure
Oh, and everyone who thinks he was some skinny little pussywhipped piece of shit, uh uh, no, this guy was 6'5" and over 250. We were just a fucking BAD combination.
And anyone who wants to say I'm a c**t, no. I rarely, if ever, fight with my current husband and when we do have disagreements it's perfectly civilized. My ex fought dirty and thought it was funny to push my buttons on purpose when I was already angry.
