So sorry this is so long!!
I’ve never thought of my partner as controlling but reading a lot of the posts on here im starting to think im in a controlling relationship. I will list a few examples from what other people have described and my personal experience. Please let me know:-
Demanding to pick up on a night out (may sound nice but I get the ‘who was I speaking to’ ‘you’re lying’ ‘can’t believe how drunk you are’ when I’m not as its only blinking 9pm most times) and the next morning is just horrendous…effing and blinding about the night before and how it’ll not be happening again…like I say I’m not drunk as he’s only dropped me off an hour before.
I came home from a night out and he was away working I said I was home but he didn’t believe me and asked me to take a picture holding an object in the house.
Reminds me more often that I’d like that I couldn’t do better than him if we split up.
One time we had an argument and a couple of items in the house were smashed. He took absolutely no responsibility for it, he would have blamed the weather honestly!!
I currently own the house we are living in and he splits the bills at the end of the month. If we fall out about this time I never get the money. I sometimes think he starts arguments to not pay. Telling me I don’t deserve it or if its after hell demand money back.
There are other examples that I can’t really think of atm. May I add I have never given into these demands as I don’t take lightly at being told what to do lol. I think maybe sometimes you need to write down these things to realise what a prat you are with or maybe I have just been reading too much into it after seeing some posts on here x
