A wolf in sheep's clothing: these signs will give away an abuser who pretends to be a "gallant" gentleman
At the initial stages of the relationship, he is kind, sweet and polite, and then gradually begins to show his true face.
Women often encounter such men, so psychologists have collected a lot of information on how to spot an abuser under the guise of a “gallant” gentleman.
At the first stages, excessive attention and care should be a warning sign. The man resorts to such tactics in order not to scare off the woman who does not yet have any feelings for him.
Gradually, more obvious signs emerge. For example, a man strives for excessive control. But even this he tries to hide under care.
However, all this leads to the fact that he, in a commanding tone, forbids communication with certain people.
An alarm bell rings when a man, without any obvious reason, does not allow you to communicate with your girlfriend or even suggests that you quit your job.
Abusers have two goals: to deprive a woman of communication with people to whom she can complain about him, and to make the woman financially dependent.
Controlling the appearance of the chosen one is also a negative sign. At this stage, the man begins to use blackmail techniques, various manipulations or resorts to insults.
