I'm an Eagle Scout and a US Marine Combat Veteran......And I consider the crowning achievement of my life not returning a closed fist punch to the nose my first wife gave me during an argument.
The crowning achievement of my life.
Well...you have my respect! ...and she probably has no idea of what you could’ve done to her and how much restraint it took not to. For a woman to do that, well...it’s exactly what I’m talking about.
There’s a harmony that is required for a marriage to succeed. I think for both genders, in many cases, this has been lost.
Again, I think the #1 criticism I have of “young ladies” is that they’re ultimately selfish creatures. They think the world revolves around them and feel they can do whatever they want to guys.

Sounds like you showed great restraint.
And thank you for your service.
