Some Signs Of Domestic Abuse

By Andrea Davidson


Domestic abuse is a specific pattern or a human behavior which includes the abuse of one partner to the other who usually have a certain intimate relationship like marriage, dating or a member of the family. This could greatly happen to everyone, but the problem is mostly overlooked, denied and excused. This will hold true to most situations especially if it is done psychologically and not physically.

Nobody should live in fear of the person that they love. Once you have noticed and acknowledged the signs of an abusive relationship, you must take the first step to end it. If you know someone who are showing some signs of it, reach out your help before it is too late.

The most visible sign of an abuse is when you begin to fear your partner. When you feel that you are unsecured and uncomfortable living with them, there is indeed a problem. It might be characterized by isolation, intrusion, jealousy, possession and too much controlling as well.

A possible batterer may have his reasons. Jealousy might be on top of it. Such people often misunderstand jealousy and love. They control the behavior of the victim entirely. They do not allow them to see them giving time for others. They may even ask some close friends to look over the innocent victim unknowingly whenever he or she would go out.

Cheating or being disloyal is often accused to a victim. They often mandate their partners to stop all relationships with her or his female or male friends. They can even show up in the workplace of the certain victim. Suspicion has been the reason for it. Each person deserves to be loved, respected, trusted and treated as special rather than dealing with such people who will tend to take over their lives and their privacy.

If you noticed that they are starting to threaten you and the people you love, you must leave immediately before the whole situation gets worse. They may start with several screaming and would later escalate to some life threatening violence. They can also start to threat themselves as well. They will use care as their weapon.

If you think that your partner would want you to become isolated from the present world, you must think about it. They may also tell you to leave some people because they do not want them. They would also control you by not allowing you to go to several places. You should always ask for help and find a stable support whenever you experience these things.

They might as well stalk you to places that you wish to go. It may be flattering that someone adores you, but not to the point of being stalked. The experience is much terrifying. You will definitely live in fear for all your life. Always remember that stalking is a crime. Report these people immediately.

Domestic abuse will often lead to burning, cutting, biting and other physical abuses that could be done. Everyone is much deserving of living a life that is free from intimidation and violence. If you have an abusive partner, you will never obtain it. Do not hesitate to stand up for yourself and speak freely. If necessary, discuss matters calmly together with your partner to avoid ending up to other forms of abuse.
