Was it abuse!!

[Itsjustusnow]

I am confused, was he abusive and was it just me. He was never raging but he would constantly keep me on edge,.always lying and giving silent treatment if he didnt get his own way. He was so loving at the start. He would always put his needs before anyone elses. I never felt secure and didnt now why.

I just wonder whether it’s just my insecurities or was it actual abuse.

On just the few sentences it sounds like there were signs of abuse, the control, walking on eggshells, silent treatment, his needs/wants taking priority are all classic flags.

I was in an abusive relationship and can relate to what you wrote so I would say so. If you think it is abuse then it probably is unfortunately. Sometimes you have to experience ‘normal’ to understand and see it x
