+1 yEntrapment by commitment is what I see the most in this department. They just want to cut off any other sexual options the partner may have had. This is like that guy that gets violently aggregated by his side-chick going on a date. "Who cares about my stupid wife!!! My side-chick just went on a date with another man!!!"
The next level is where they actively try to cut off contact from friends and family. Cults do this, narcissists, do this, psychopaths do it, and so does any partner that wants to restrict all your options to them and only them.
So what are the signs that you are about to be stepping into this type of shit? You've heard of "mate-guarding" behavior before right? Take that behavior and step it up a notch when you're not even flashing your tits at his friends that would trigger normal mate-guarding behavior.
I would go deeper into the psychopathy/psychology of it all... but most normies don't even understand how something like sending flowers to a girl at work should be a bright red flag being waved about with alarms going off.

+1 yIf this is happening to you right now then you need to make serious plans to get out of this asap. You are dating a control freak who sees you as an extension of himself. He doesn’t respect you as a unique individual.
He’s acting this way out deep insecurity not love. Men like this are very dangerous. But whyvis it young (and usually attractive) women fall for these assholes?

+1 yUnfortunately this comes form dark personality traits. Because a person whose a good person who just isn’t feeling anymore. But cares for you and even themselves. They will just be honest and say how they feel. So you can both move on and find someone whose right for you.
But unfortunately some folks aren’t normal. I think common sings will be. They aren’t showing affection but they get jealous. It’s another thing too when someone doesn’t want you to find someone better then themslves. But just not showing affection. But being too jealous.
I also just think. What’s your gut feeling?

Asker+1 yWell he doesn't put in any effort but doesn't wanna let me go either, says everything's fine, never takes account for anything wrong that he does, clearly doesn't want to spend time with me at all, last time was at least 2 months ago, I've been trying to talk to him or bring it up and all he can say is I'm seeing things or I'm looking for a fight or he'd dissappear for a while and I'd ask what kind of relationship this is and he'd apologize but do the very same thing again, can't bring up how upset I am or it's an argument and can't just feel like this and stay the same with him but he says he still wants me, stays up until the am on his phone but says his watching soccer, tells me to stay up and wait for him but then takes hours to get to me until I fall asleep , thoughts?

I think it’s time to break it off. It seems one sided. If you’re giving all the effort and taking accountability for everything. And he isn’t…. Major problem.

That sounds like a terrible relationship. Honestly. I would leave him
- +1 y
Yeah they love to gaslight you. Tell you things are great even if they aren’t. Make it seem like all the problems are your fault. While you’re putting all the effort in.
He won’t spend time with you. But doenst even want you to go to sleep. That’s weird
Asker+1 yAll just weird and then the one night I'm not tired he goes to sleep early says his feeling sick

Asker it does sound weird. I think you should leave him.

3.6K opinions shared on Relationships topic. If their words match their behavior, then believe their words, even if it isn't what you want to hear. If their words don't match their behavior, then use their behavior as your guide.
If you want any chance of your relationship lasting, you must vet all potential partners right from the beginning, based on their morals, values and life goals. If those aren't compatible with yours, your relationship will not survive, regardless of how strong your feelings are for them. If you allow yourself to be led by your feelings of attraction/infatuation or your desire for status or lifestyle, instead of vetting for morals, values, and life goals, you will doom every relationship to failure.
Your feelings and desires have no logic or reason behind them, and no concern for your safety or your future - they only care about the moment you are in, and don't care about the consequences. That's why they must always be tempered with reason and logic. That's much less fun at the beginning, but pays off in the long run.
Regarding this guy: how would you evaluate his morals, values, and life goals in relation to yours? The answer to that question should tell you what you need to know.00 Reply- 1.4K opinions shared on Relationships topic.
+1 yI would say those types of people are highly manipulative. They act way too defensively with you being around the opposite sex. They will tell you where you should be allowed to go and never want you to go anywhere without them or it's betrayal in their eyes. They don't talk much to you and focus on their own devices, but they always want you to be readily available to them.

Asker+1 ySo they do what they want and when they want but you should be available when they want you to?
So a bit of narcissism?- +1 y

+1 yThey treat you badly, talk down on you, basically make you feel insecure and believe that you’re not good enough to find someone else or that someone else wants you. At the same time, they give you just enough love and affection to make you believe you are better off staying.

Asker+1 ySo like ignores you most of the time, dates you but doesn't really have you apart in their life until they want to?
- +1 y
Exactly. It's like he doesn't want you, but doesn't want you with anyone else.
Asker+1 ySucks lol
I don't know the person I would honestly talk to them about it we don't know them either every person is different there is no correct way to answer this question logically

Asker+1 ySo like you can be friends with his male friends but not yours?
- +1 y
That's your call to make. It just depends on how "controlled" you eventually start feeling. But removing you from your own friends is one of the first steps.

Asker+1 yHow so?

Well, obviously she isn't that interested in actually having a relationship with me. So the only obvious explanation is that she wants to keep me from dating other women. Because she wants to have the OPTION of having a relationship with me, in case she changes her mind.
