It was 2 years ago in summer. I was a 22 y. o. girl who just broke up with her 24 y.o. boyfriend. After 1 month he asked me to meet with him to discuss some issues. We’ve met in a park. At the beginning he acted normally, but then he started becoming aggressive, we started to argue and all of a sudden he grabbed my throat and started strangling me. I got shocked since he’s like 6’3" tall and strong and I’m just 5’2". But then I remembered that I had a pocket knife with me. So I quickly pulled it out of my right pocket and just plunged it right into his belly up to the hilt. He exclaimed like: “Ugh! Shit! My gut!” and I felt he’s starting to loosen his grip. I pressed the knife as deep as possible into his belly - my heart was racing out of stress as I did it, feeling his soft belly leaning onto my right hand and hearing him moaning deeply like: “Haugh! Hoooooooooooooooogh!” (he just had a really deep voice). Finally, as he took his hands off my throat, I twisted the blade and pulled it out. He clatched his wounded belly with both hands and fell on his knees.
I then called the police and ambulance. Luckily there was a camera nearby, so I could prove myself right. I got justified, my ex survived and got convicted.
You spent a strangely long amount of time just describing the stab, especially considering the 4 word sentence establishing the scene. Makes me think this is just an excuse to write about someone getting stabbed in the stomach.
Also, I remember someone on here who was also oddly fixated on gut stabs. Like, it came up a lot, and often seemed like a forced way to talk about gut stabs. I figured it was either an excuse for being bad at fencing, or it was a sex thing. I initially assumed it was the same guy who wrote this.
I don’t know what you are talking about, sorry. I haven’t seen the posts you are talking about. I just described pretty detailed the whole situation, thats it
Its that “strangled by nerd thighs” thing all over again, isnt it?
Yeah, pretty much. Look at how often the word “belly” comes up, especially combined with being described as soft and vulnerable. Then ask yourself why half the post was a vivid description of the stab, but there wasn’t ANY description of the scene of the incident.
I mean, in that situation, wouldn’t the part where you end up deciding you have to hurt someone to escape a traumatic situation going to be the most detailed part of the memory?
I’m not saying people don’t do shit like that on the internet, but I really don’t think this post is nearly obvious enough to be a place to start calling someone out about it. Even if all OP wanted to do was type it out and just vent it, there’s not anything wrong with that.
I admit, I would have brushed it off as just a bit weird if it weren’t for the memory of the guy who kept posting about gut stabs. But seeing the comment where they describe the stomach as a soft and vulnerable area rang such a specific bell that I couldn’t ignore it.
Plus, they asked this question in two question subs (deleting one of them), and they only seem to want to know the general opinion on justified self-defence. If they aren’t a troll, their motives are bizzare.
Yeah, I tend to default to assuming non troll for this reason. The rewards of the best case scenario (correctly recognizing a troll) simply don’t outweigh the consequences of the worst case scenario (calling someone who went through a traumatic experience a troll because you’re too online).
If I’m wrong, then all I’ve done is put out good vibes and hopefully something useful for other people.
You’re probably thinking of @BeReady77@lemmy.world. I’ve been expecting another post any day but wasn’t anticipating a name change.
