Warning Signs of an Abusive Relationship!!

It is not always clear you are in an abusive relationship. But what if you are and you do not know about it. So, today's post is all about it.

We will be discussing all the warning signs of an abusive relationship and you can try to notice if they exist in your relationship in some or other way. At the end the most important thing matters are YOU.

It is common for those who abused feel like it is their fault and somehow they are responsible for the abuse. But it is important to understand you cannot blame yourself the way an abusive person treats you.

Here are some signs to discuss --

✔ Violence - Either in physical, sexual or emotional form. When they feel angry, frustrated, they push, hit or grab you and make you do things you do not want to do. They do things that affect your emotional, mental and physical health.

✔ Disregard boundaries - Boundaries are important to have a healthy relationship. It allows you to feel your individuality and be yourself. That is why we need boundaries. But when you set boundaries and abusive person disregard your boundaries, it affects your life. It indicates your needs and preferences are not as important as his. And, they try to undermine your self-worth.

✔ Controlling attitude - Mutual consent and agreement is a much-needed component of a healthy relationship. But when your partner tries to control your life in every or most of the aspects, it is abusive. It like living life the way he wants. For doing everything, you need to seek his permission and that is unacceptable for a healthy relationship.

✔ Being possessive of you - You cannot meet your friends. You cannot talk to your family. You cannot do this. You cannot do that. It may seem like they love you and that is why possessive of you. No doubt it is good. But extreme possessiveness hurts where you find you are stopped to do things and meet people you want to. They keep a check on you all the time and if you do not do what they say, they get angry and show physical aggression.

✔ Pinpoint flaws in you - Who is flawless? Nobody. Nobody is perfect. But finding flaws and telling you are not good. Put all the blame for all the problems and troubles on you. They do not accept their responsibility for the events and incidents.

They were a few common warning signs of an abusive relationship.
