Ladies do not sell yourself short, love yourself more. Do not hand over your life to anyone, surround yourself with positive people. Once a woman or man tell you to stay at home with them or start checking your mobile or go through your things. Telling you what to wear, and being abusive, Its time to run a mile. Never tell them to move in with you, if you have children, give the relationship at least 6-8 months before you start to introduce them. These steps my cousin didn't do and now she is DEAD!

A female reader, Dorothy Dix Australia +, writes (13 February 2011):

Hi there. There are some signs to look out for when meeting new partners.

Some of them are:-

(1) Someone who wants to get serious much too early in a new relationship.

(2) Jealousy over who you are friends with, and what you do and where you go.

(3) Anger over very minor things, very out of proportion to the situation.

(4) Physical violence.

(5) Psychological abuse.

(6) Controlling behaviour - over every tiny little thing.

(7) Wanting you to stay home with them and not have a life of your own.

(8) Extreme behaviour of any type at all.

(9) Drinking heavily and then becoming aggressive - this is always a dangerous warning sign.

(10) A man who has a bad day at work, or something goes wrong for him - and then he takes it out on you (like it's your fault).

As you say, there are so many different things to look out for, and they are really obvious. You just know when something just doesn't feel right to you. It's instinct.

Any strange forms of behaviour that seem abnormal, should all be warning bells. It's important to stay ever aware.
