Can Your Partner Become Abusive? These 15 Signs Will Let You Know

1. Your partner is very controlling

If your partner is over-controlling at the beginning of the relationship, chances are they’ll turn into an abuser later on. If they constantly ask you where you are going, who else will be there, who you’re talking to and starts timing your absence from the house, they may have some unresolved issues with control or they may feel insecure, says Rudi Rahbar, a clinical psychologist who specializes in couples and families.

2. Your partner is very jealous

According to Rachel Needle, a psychologist and certified sex therapist in West Palm Beach, Florida, and co-director of Modern Sex Therapy Institutes, if your partner is too jealous and too controlling in the ‘honeymoon phase’ it’s a sign that they could turn into an abuser in the future.

If your partner is very jealous when you talk with other people when you go out without them or even without a reason if they accuse you of lying and cheating even though you’ve done nothing wrong, it is a huge red flag and you should be wary!
