All too often relationships end as a result of one (or both) partners using a pattern of controlling behaviors which can escalate into abuse. Although typically attributed to men, these behaviors can also be seen in women and adolescents. Controlling behaviors may take the form of aggression, physical/verbal abuse or intimidation. A cycle develops with the controller continually seeking to change their partner's "sense of self ", whereas the victim may resist and/or display passive aggressive behaviors..
