1. Constant Criticism '" you are in a relationship where your man is consisting carping about your faults. The love is gone and it's been replaced by a verbal barrage about everything that's wrong with you. This is abuse.
2. Two Toms '" your man Tom has two lives; the one he lives when he's with you and the one when you're not around. Increasingly, Tom spends more and more time in his life without you. When he's with you, it's hell. Bickering, resentment and tension makes your time together unbearable as if he only comes around so he can hurl verbal insults at you and abuse you. You are also completely excluded from the life he lives when you're not around.
