Answer 1

Like someone else said, it's a feeling of "walking on eggshells" ALL of the time. A feeling of dread that when the person comes home you haven't done everything quite right. It's second guessing yourself on everything you do by considering whether your significant other would approve. Constant, incessant name calling. Telling you that no one else will put up with you, only them. Putting down your dreams and aspirations. Isolating you from friends and family members. Telling you that if you perform certain tasks or act a certain way that you can "prove" your love for them. (Of course, they don't have to do anything) And finally, you feeling like you've won some sort of prize when the person throws you out a small tidbit of affection and you grab it up like oxygen.

Answer 2

I was an abused wife. And I was cheated on while
having our baby and Hit during my pregnancy.

We were married when we were 16, and started
liking each other from the fourth grade. It would start when I was 17. The abuse continued. I
dropped all of the PF AS (at least 4-5 times) and
he was free to abuse me again. I was32 when all
Hell broke loose. I was at my cousins house when
my husband knocked on the door and demanded
that I come out of the house and if I didn't he
would take his car and ram it into the gas tanks
of my friends. Well who would believe that,
He did just what he sad he was gonna do. My
friend, herself and son had ran, when we got to
the 3rd step--Boom! God was with us that night.
I'm 48 AND HE IS 49. All that is over now.
He did his Jail time. he took domestic violence
Classes and also became a preacher. Now he
is the man I had wanted all my life. God works in
mysterious ways. And you've got to ask god to
show you the way he wants you to go.

Answer 3

One of the most common signs of an abusive relationship is when a partner turns very nasty, very quickly and for no apparent reason.

Many abusive partners are very nice in the first instance because they are good actors or actresses.

Most abusers have a need to control.

Many abusers project their faults onto others and remain in denial of their own faults.

Some of the more clever abusers wind up or provoke their partners so much that the partner snaps and hits out and is then perceived as the abuser when he or she is in point of fact the victim.

Abusers love mind games.

Male abusers are often very remorseful saying they will never do it again. Male abusers tend to abuse with physical violence.

Many female abusers abuse by proxy eg, they manipulate with lies others to do their abuse for them. Examples are getting other men to beat up their spouse or getting the authorities to penalise their spouse for alleged crimes of abuse of which they are actually innocent of.

The only way to avoid abuse is to separate from the abuser.

Answer 4

My husband is emotionally abusive. All he does is call me names and put me down everytime I do or say something he doesn't agree with. He's hit me a few times also. A sign of being in an abusive relationship is feeling like your "walking on egg shells" around them, you watch what you say or do so they don't get upset. I feel like this all the time. It isn't good.

Answer 5

The sign are if you have a black eye and a broken skull. That the time to move on with your life.
