Fortunately he lives far away.

If a man got drunk and hurt me intentionally even once, I wouldn't be giving him a second chance. I'd be rethinking the 'I'm hopelessly in love with him thing'. I'd be seeing him as a sick guy with a drinking and women beating problem who could have been really great if only... maybe I'd tell him "If you ever stop drinking and beating on women call me".

How could you even give him three chances? What's going on with you that you'd subject yourself to that?
