And when he is nice it usually because he is forced to. A romantic couple are not mean to one another or a Couple. And don’t treat other person like dirt I think Amy will be a battered wife imo. You can already kind of see see it starting to happen. Amy deserves better. No It not all about Science Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk A battered wife? when has Sheldon ever been physically agressive towards anyone? Anyone at all. Geez. Penny has hit more people then Sheldon ever has. The thought of Sheldon battering someone is as ludecris as saying Leonard, howard or Raj are phycically agressive girlfriend/wife beaters. Sheldon is well known for using his friends as a human shield. Or flat out running away. Lol on this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that depends on how you define hitting. 38 minutes ago, Die Zimtzicke said: He was too well raised by his mother and grandmother. If Sheldon was so well raised why is he so inappropriate so often. Insulting his boss. Insulting a judge...

One of the characters on the show was a Sargent Schultz. His favorite line was “ I hear nothing I see nothing”. Kind of reminds me of people who ignore facts about Sheldon.

It is well established he has trouble reading social cues...he has gotten quite a bit better then what ten or eleven years ago. Amy has helped him considerably. Do you have better examples from like the past 2 season or so? Even Penny says Sheldon loves Amy and would never hurt her. Certainly that is true after they broke up and got back together. Is he perfect? No. But he is very loving towards Amy. A swat to the bottom of your serious long term girlfriend is not abusive...

3ku11 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) Prob because he wasen't threatned by Stuart and Co. He clearly was with Leonard. Despite showing no romantic interest. I mean hes got the Cheerleader. Why would he want the captain of the Debate team And to some degree, I agree Amy well prob be a battered wife. Sheldon is not violent. But in a way Leonard was battered having to live with him all those years. Sheldons Amys responsiblity now.

Stuart/Denise is how Raj's thing should have been handled, but racist show gotta racist. You have no basis for saying that whatsoever. A racist show wouldn't have had an Indian protagonist, not to mention that you could have said it more clearly. 1 hour ago, Sah said: It is well established he has trouble reading social cues...he has gotten quite a bit better then what ten or eleven years ago.

I agree with everything you say except the last sentence. I was uncomfortable when Sheldon slapped Amy's ass in the way he did. I know he was sort of drunk but I didn't like that. that being said I don't believe he'll abuse her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me that people are still living in the past when Sheldon had little to no emotion, you know, BEFORE Amy. People really need to watch the show properly and don't say things that will immediately backfire on you.

MTBigBangTheoryFan Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I am not talking about physical abuse.

They wanted her! He punched Burt because Burt suggested he could do better. He threatened to punch Wil Wheaton. Both times were because he thought they'd insulted Amy. He was no longer afraid of losing her to someone else by then. Edited September 3, 2018 by joyceraye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonmar Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Just as a reminder, tomorrow (Monday) is a federal holiday in the US....Labor Day. The cast and crew have the day off. On Tuesday they will do their usual Monday stuff like full dress and pre-taping. On Wednesday they will tape 12x3 and then the cast has their first one week hiatus of Season 12.

bfm Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I can't see Sheldon being abusive to Amy, I think that's a vast exaggeration. Selfish, unfair, arrogant, insulting, rude and to a point mean I can see, but most times not with an intention to hurt and Amy can set him straight on these like she did in "The Proposal Proposal".

I'm not taking this discussion very seriously as it is a sitcom and a rather silly one. My first remark was in response to hitting. Well he has hit already so I just said it depends on your definition of hitting. The other point I responded to was if he had been brought up well. Not really. I don't blame his mother. Sheldon was a special gifted kid beyond what most of us could cope well with. This show is not intended to be about abusive couples in my opinion. It is more about unique talented individuals and their struggles with the ordinary things in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say it won’t be abuse, because that requires intent, but I don’t feel it will be an egalitarian relationship. Sheldon has needs. Needs that require special attentions. Special specific attentions. Exhausting attentions. His needs wore out Penny, and Leonard prior. I don’t know how Amy will walk, because she will be so exhausted from attending to his specific needs. Like when he has an “ouchie”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
