When someone tries to tell other people what to do all the time—even things that aren’t their choice to make.

When someone puts another person’s feelings and problems ahead of their own so much that they forget to take care of themselves.

When the same things happen again and again—like someone being nice, then mean, then pretending nothing happened.

When someone uses words, silence, or tricks to make you feel scared, small, or confused inside.

When someone avoids answering questions or won’t talk about something important.

People who help a hurtful person do their work for them—sometimes without realizing it.

When someone says something didn’t happen even though you know it did. It makes you doubt yourself.

When someone acts like they’re the best at everything, and no one else’s thoughts or feelings matter.

A way to protect yourself by being calm, quiet, and boring on purpose—so someone doesn’t pull you into a fight or try to upset you.

When someone tries to pull you back into a relationship by pretending to be kind again—but only to get what they want.

When someone tries to mess with your thoughts or make you feel like you can’t trust yourself anymore.

A person who only thinks about themselves, needs all the attention, and blames others when things go wrong.

When someone hurts another person’s body on purpose—like hitting, grabbing, or scaring them with their hands.

When someone blames another person for something they’re actually doing themselves.

People who don’t feel bad when they hurt others and don’t care about how others feel. They may lie or pretend a lot to get their way.

When someone tries to hurt or scare a person after a mistake instead of helping them learn and grow.

When someone refuses to talk, listen, or answer—like building a wall between people during a hard moment.

When someone treats you badly but sometimes gives you just enough love to make you stay. It feels like love but is really about control.

A person who is hurt or treated unfairly by someone else.

When someone hurts another person but pretends they’re the one who was hurt.

When someone doesn’t want to learn the truth or understand because it would mean they'd have to change or take responsibility.

 If someone is using these behaviors around you, it's not your fault.
You can talk to a safe adult, a teacher, or a counselor.
Your feelings matter. You are not alone.
You're allowed to ask questions, tell the truth, and protect your heart.
