Could You Be in an Abusive Relationship? These 5 Signs Might Reveal the Truth.
Abuse doesn’t always start with bruises. It often begins with control, fear, or manipulation. If you are wondering whether what you are experiencing is abuse, here are five signs to watch for:
- They Control Your Every Move
- They tell you what to wear, where to go, or who you can speak to.
• They track your phone or constantly monitor your whereabouts.
- They Isolate You
- They make you feel guilty for seeing friends or family.
• They gradually cut you off from your support system.
- They Use Fear or Threats
- They yell, break things, or threaten violence, even if they don’t follow through.
• They threaten to harm themselves or others if you leave.
- They Blame You for Everything
- Even when they hurt you, they say it’s your fault.
• You often apologize when you did nothing wrong.
- They Hurt You Physically or Sexually
- Any hitting, pushing, forced sex, or unwanted touching is abuse.
• Even one incident is one too many.
You are not to blame. You are not alone.
