Things Don't Always Seem to Add Up
When your partner tells you a story, some of the things they talk about never seem to add up. You don't feel like they are being totally honest with you or telling you the whole story. If you say something they become angry with you, and accuse you of not trusting them. If you catch them in a lie, they'll just spit out another one to cover the last lie up. They will never apologize, and instead turn it on you.
You begin to do everything they say but they still find fault with you. You start to believe their lies and when, in their eyes, you do something wrong they punish you. If they cheat on you, they make you believe it's your fault for being "inadequate". All their lies do not add up and it’s clear that they are trying to manipulate you somehow.
