Bad Boys, Bad Men

Bad Boys, Bad Men 3rd Edition
"At first, she tried to look beyond his bad habits - the nights he spent out drinking while she lay awake at home, the snarling insults that punctuated arguments, the tendency to throw things or punch walls. Tom's life had been tough, she reminded herself, and he was just out of prison after serving a sentence for armed robbery, a sentence cut short by good behavior. In time, he would get a job, simmer down, and settle into the life she imagined for them. She focused on his better side - his charm and promises, good looks, and other traits she thought she remembered from the first weeks of their relationship. But things gradually grew worse, and eventually no fond memories could counter the reality of the moment. One evening, she made dinner, set the table with her grandmother's dishes, and asked him to please stay home. He brushed aside her request, but she persisted. Finally, he upended the table in a fit of rage, littering the floor with pot roast, mashed potatoes, and fragments of china. Terrified, Tom's girlfriend managed to stand her ground, issuing a tearful ultimatum: Get help or lose her"--
