The one time I tried chatting a woman up in a bar her husband showed up and started beating the hell out of her (he didn't touch me, incidentally. In fact he offered to reimburse me for the drinks I'd bought her

That was almost a decade ago now, and I haven't tried it again.
Sounds like he felt teaching you a lesson (for something you may or may not have been aware of) was completely useless, would have made him a complete as*hole - and on the other hand she knew exactly what she was doing. To me though, having to sort a woman out like that just goes beyond reason; as in the only way I could see any rational in that is if she really had her hooks in his life (ie. had his kids, had his bank accounts, it would take months if not years to finalize the divorce, and she could do irreparable damage in that time). At least thank god you aren't that guy. Its just another reminder of why I'm so cautious about who I want to spend my time with;
bad situations can even do that to good people and I'd never in my life want to be in that position.
