1. He Puts You down
One of the top signs your boyfriend is controlling is that he constantly puts you down. He makes it seem like you can't do anything without him and that he is your entire world. He will tend to pick out every flaw you have and exploit it to the point that you start to believe you have to depend on him to be a better person. This will make you lose your own confidence and in turn, make you more vulnerable. Watch out for this ladies!

He constantly doubts you and constantly doubts that you are telling the truth or even that you are going to tell the truth. If your guy is constantly at you about where you have been and doesn't believe you when you tell him, it could be a sign your boyfriend is controlling!

Storm: Well, I was with someone for 12 years who was controlling and emotionally abusive towards me. I believed we actually had something, even though later I realized our relationship was nothing more than a matter of convenience. I diluted myself into believing it was more when I was just being used. We were never bf/gf, he never introduced me as such, any relations we had were always kept in secret. The last 6 years were the hardest on me and nearly broke me down completely. I had given up on so much, and truly believed that I was always at fault and not good enough, and this was exactly what I thought I deserved. Luckily, I've met a wonderful man this past August that has brought me back from that darkness I was accepting. He gave me the love and strength to finally do what I had wanted to do for many years, which was to leave, and we are together now and taking things slow, but I have never been happier. My advice to you Desi, is you could talk to your boyfriend about how you feel, but if you are indeed believing that he is controlling, he more than likely is. You just have to decide on how much of yourself do you want to waste on someone who is destructive for you, and will never fully respect and love you for "you".
Wonderer: It can definetly go in reverse too.. I wonder how I ended up reading this post at first place, I was searching some privacy related articles.. Well, anyways, I guess I shoul try to talk with my gf about this topic again, I've actually never said her straight out how feel with these things she wanting to control me. She's just so jealous all the time, one of her friends mentioned that to her while we were all three hanging out together and my gf didn't want keep in touch with her anymore. I think the friend didn't cross the line when mentioning that but my gf just got so mad about it. 8/8 match, yeah.
isyss: ok girl thaks
butterflybabe344: @Noemi, don't go back to him. it's just going to be the same thing over anf over again. I'm with a controlling guy right now and I don't know how to make the step to leave
Cyranobabe: OMG my bf has ALL the traits above, and you won't believe but I send him screenshots of my call logs and my texts and chats with my friends and even after sending that he says you've edited all that. He doesn't like me hanging out with my friends even with girls, and well guys... He just says that you can't. I have to ask him if I should go or not. He gets pissed if I try to explain or when it feels like I'm right he just says you're hurting and bullying me.. I mean whatever he says is fine but if I say smth that's totally wrong. I literally don't know his to get out of this tiresome relationship where I don't have a respect and I don't get any faith and trust. And he wants to marry me soon...
