Scary situation. It makes me thankful for what I have. My parents were probably too involved in my life, but not to this extreme.
Its always good to get feedback from those that love you if you have doubts. As many posters have said in this topic, you should never feel like you're a prisoner to someone else you should feel totally free and uninhibited. The saying… if you love me set me free should be… when you're love by someone you are already free.
These signs are 100% on point. My father abused my mother and I can a lot of this growing up. Not letting her have friends, or a job. He controlled every aspect of her life. Nobody should have to deal with a relationship like that ever.
One popular form of manipulation that occurs in abusive relationships is when one partner ignores the other or gives them the silent treatment when that partner is in need, or when you are in pain or need your partner and they act apathetic and ignore your requests as if they don’t matter. Unfortunately some people don't realize relationships such as these are toxic and they need to leave.
