Hi Danielle,

I don't think you are losing your mind. It sounds as if you have lots of reasons to question what your relationship is really about. Your partner sounds somewhat controlling and throwing pants at you is not okay. His name-calling, even at or about animals is verbal abuse and may be designed to intimidate you. He sounds quite critical. From what you've described he devalues and disrepects you. These can be warning signs that more abuse or more extreme abuse than what you've seen so far may be coming.

You do not sound happy or fulfilled. I hope you will think about your experience and how you feel. You may benefit from talking things over with a councellor.

This relationship does not sound functional, mutual, or healthy.

Take care,
A.J. Mahari
