How many hits could be sufficient to be termed "Domestic Violence"

      A topic people never cease to talk about. A term used by everyone who had been hit by a partner( either male or female) Yes. Domestic violence is not only meted out to women by their spouses, it can also be done to men, but to women is more common. 
         As soon as a man hits a woman in the home or anywhere, it is termed as "domestic violence'' I can still remember one of my girlfriend who just got slapped by her partner, even though he apologized, and said he was angry and all that and since then he has never tried laying a finger on her. Does that make the guy a beast? Does that make him unworthy of her?  Could it be that it was just a mistake that is never going to be repeated by him, ever? All my other friends were quick to judge and call him names, and I just stared, not knowing what to say because he has never displayed that kind of behaviour before. So I didn't say anything . 
        But my question now is "Would that be termed domestic violence?" "How frequent  does one need to hit a woman for it to be called domestic violence? "
"Are you going to leave your man because he hit you once? "
   No🙅👰 woman should be beaten i know, we should never take the blame and accept we are the cause or reason for the blows and punches meted out on us, but what are you going to do if this happens to you? 
    I want to know your sincere answers to all these questions guys. What do you think? Do you have a story to share?  Have you had such experiences before and how bad was it?  In that situation, what did you do?
