Signs Of An Emotionally Abusive Relationship by Hope6289(f): 1:17pm On Apr 06, 2015
Is it possible you're being abused and not even know it?

Abuse is not always as obvious as being hit or shoved, called degrading names or cussed out. In fact, it can very well be underhanded or subtle.

This is the kind of abuse that often sneaks up on you as you become more entrenched in the relationship. I am talking here about psychological abuse, which is also known as mental or emotional abuse.

Psychological abuse can look like:
1.Humiliating or embarrassing you.
2.Constant put-downs.
3.Hypercriticism.
4.Refusing to communicate.
5.Ignoring or excluding you.
6.Extramarital affairs.
7.Provocative behavior with opposite sex.
8.Use of sarcasm and unpleasant tone of voice.
9.Unreasonable jealousy.
10.Extreme moodiness.
11.Mean jokes or constantly making fun of you.
12.Saying“I love you but…”
13.Saying things like“If you don’t _____, I will_____.”
14.Domination and control.
15.Withdrawal of affection.
16.Guilt trips.
17.Making everything your fault.
18.Isolating you from friends and family.
19.Using money to control.
20.Constant calling or texting when you are not with him/her.
21.Threatening to commit suicide if you leave.

It is advised that if you notice these signs, you need to take actions about it, and if you're not yet married, it's better you leave.

Abuse is any unappreciative and discomforting act of a friend. The subtle ones are more dangerous. Unfortunately, we read some as signs of love.
