STARTING a relationship is exciting as you are getting to know each other, but there’s no telling when something may change a promising romance.
Domestic violence is on the rise, leaving many people more vulnerable than ever before.
Red flags:
- You excuse their abusive behaviour
- They blame negative feelings and actions on others
- They show bitterness and a great sense of power
- Do not want to discuss issues in the relationship
- Constantly testing your boundaries
- Everything is about them
- They are overly critical about their previous partners
- You are continually criticised and dismissed
- Excessive jealousy.
Signs of abuse are not always easy to spot as the victim is made to look like the one at fault for the problems in the relationship.
The greatest indication of an abusive relationship is isolation from friends, family and usual activities. Victims will often struggle to make decisions and absolute support is the best gift you can offer.
