He doesn’t love you… he manages you. Tells you what to do. Corrects you. Talks to you like you work for him. And if you push back? Now you’re “the problem.” That’s not leadership. That’s control. If you feel like you have to walk on eggshells just to keep the peace… you’re not in a partnership. Comment “control” if you’ve felt this. Save this. You’re going to see it clearer now. #con#controllingrelationshipx#toxicmarriageo#emotionalabusel#relationshiptruthrriageproblems

Transcript

When a man doesn't love you, he starts acting like your boss. When a man doesn't love you, he stops showing up like a partner and starts acting like a boss, like he's in charge and you're the one who has to fall in line. Not his partner anymore. You're his employee, telling you what to do, how to act, what tone you should use, what's acceptable and what's not. Everything becomes a correction. Your tone, your reactions, your emotions, you don't have to act like that. Why are you always like this? Just calm down. Now, you're watching yourself before you even speak, before you even act, trying to say things the right way, so it doesn't turn into another issue, another argument. Slowly, you stop being yourself because it's easier than being criticized all the fucking time. A part that really messes with your head, he'll say he's trying to help you, like he's improving you instead of controlling you, but a man that loves you doesn't position himself above you. He doesn't make you feel like you're doing everything wrong. So that's not a partner. That's someone who benefits from you feeling small every single day. If this hit, comment, boss in the comments below. Share this with a woman that needs it. Say here, I'm Mama Tone. Follow for more.
