If your partner regularly belittles, mocks, or criticizes you, undermining your self-esteem and self-worth, it's a red flag.
Emotional manipulators twist the truth, deny their behavior, or make you question your reality, leading you to doubt yourself.
Your partner may try to cut you off from friends, family, or support networks, making you feel alone and dependent on them.
They might dictate what you wear, where you go, or who you associate with, exerting control over your actions and choices.
Emotional abusers refuse to take responsibility for their actions and always find a way to blame you for everything that goes wrong in the relationship.
They may withhold love, affection, or praise as a way to punish or control you, leaving you feeling unloved or inadequate.
Insults, yelling, name-calling, or threatening language are common tactics used by emotional abusers to instill fear or manipulate you.
