Another in a series of posts that began as comments to other people:
Anna has a post up entitled I Loathe This Song! which you should go look at (Do not, under any circumstances, listen to the song sh has a link to. It will shrivel your brain.)

Lyrics for: He Hit Me (It Felt Like A Kiss):
He hit me and it felt like a kiss He hit me but it didn't hurt me He couldn't stand to hear me say That I'd been with someone new And when I told him I had been untrue
He hit me (da-da-da-ah) and it felt like a kiss (felt like a kiss) He hit me (da-da-da-ah) and I knew he loved me If he didn't care for me, I could have never made him mad But he hit me (da-da-da-ah) and I was glad
(Da-da-da-ah) (Da-da-da-ah)
Yes, he hit me (da-da-da-ah) and it felt like a kiss (felt like a kiss) He hit me (da-da-da-ah) and I knew I loved him And then, he took me in his arms With all the tenderness there is And when he kissed me (da-da-da-ah), he made me his (Da-da-da)

Never mind what; read the graphic novel (if you can find a copy). The important part is this:
