The system is not as simple as you would have it. The court does not hand out restraining orders without cause and the person against whom they are sought has the right to challenge it. I am sure you do not believe this, but trust me, I had a client who was physcially and mentally abused by her boyfriend and the court removed the temporary order after a hearing based on the violence being remote in time. Any violence is outside of the way that normal couples live. If your boyfriend ever touched you in anger, he should be barred from being near you. There is no excuse for a man ever doing that to a woman. You may see it in your life in others, and for that I am sorry, as that is not how people behave, especialy if they are romantically involved. If a man is angry, he leaves the room.
