Fact 1 Emotional Abusers would mostly stick to verbal taunts and threats rather than hurting you physically. They would stick to several kinds of verbal abuse, including name calling, yelling, hurling threats, throwing the blame and causing shame etc. until they either push you into a corner or make you break down into tears. Fact 2 Emotional Abusers would usually threaten their victims into accepting their demands. These threats range from simple taunts like refusing to give them money or withdrawing their privileges, to more serious issues like threatening to harm the victim or his/her loved ones (including children). Fact 3 An emotional abuser would most surely not take the blame for any mistake of his/hers’ and would stuff it upon you, making it clear in the process that it was entirely your fault and that you would need to come up with a solution for the issue. In some cases, the abuser would even blame the victim for his/her own behavior. Fact 4 Individuals who emotionally abuse their partners expect to be the dominating personality in the family. And this they assert by being authoritative with their partners at every other instant. They would not give any heed to their partners’ words and expect the latter to follow their instructions to the ‘T’ instead. An emotional abuser would most probably isolate his/her partner from social circles, including the latter’s family members and friends. In addition to this, the abuser would constantly try to belittle or humiliate his/her partner in front of others to appear superior himself/herself.
