Extreme Jealously
Is your partner always jealous of you? A prominent trait of abusers is their jealousy. An abusive partner is often jealous of you, other people and even your dreams and goals. Their jealousy and rage over intangible things like your aspirations stem from the lack of control they feel over those aspects of your life. They regularly point out your flaws and mistakes.
Isolates You
Early signs of a abusive relationship is they will try to isolate you. They will want everything hushed and will get angry if you disclose your relationship details to others. They will want you all to themselves and don’t understand that you need some time with yourself or that you need to with your family and friends. They accuse or blame you of things you know aren’t true.
Punishes You
It is not a sign of healthy relationship if your partner wants to punish you for something. Whatever it may be that you have done, if they feel the need to punish you, you need to leave immediately. An abuser is a grand manipulator and will sulk, threaten to leave, and emotionally punish you for not following their idea of how things should be.
