For example, when you start talking about ‘how to improve our relationship’, he will jump straight into conclusion and will get the thought that he is not the best yet for you.

And if you don't do whatever he asks you to do then he will jump straight to you and attack you with his harsh words. If he says do this, meaning you have to do what he asks you to do. 4) They simply don’t respect you: A pattern of disrespect wears us down and creates things like anxiety and dread. It makes you feel like we have to keep our guards up or prepare for the argument or attack before it happens. We begin to dread bringing things up because we know what they are going to say. These feeling of constantly being on the defense is a sign that your partner doesn’t respect you.

In order for you to not create a fight, you will keep whatever problem that you are having within yourself. credit: geckoandfly So tell me will you feel okay to be in this kind of relationship?
