1. He is ready to compromise
If a man is using you, he won’t give up anything for the sake of making the relationship work. It’s actually always you who has to sacrifice everything, which is a huge sign of a toxic relationship.
Compromise is crucial to the survival of every relationship. So, if your man loves and respects you, he would make sure to keep a balance and treat you like an equal. You won’t have to be the only one who has to give up something, you both would be a team.
Signs he is using you:
These are the top five signs your partner is manipulating you for his own advantage. Read on:
5. He makes you feel guilty
If you’ve done nothing to feel guilty about but your partner keeps making you feel like you’ve done exactly that, then he is definitely manipulating you emotionally.
Someone who uses you, makes sure to always make you feel like you’re not enough, or like they’re doing you a favor by sticking with you. This sure can be blamed on low self-esteem, which many people suffer from, so you should be aware of that and know when to leave a relationship.
Know that there is nothing wrong with you, you, too, deserve love and to be with someone who truly deserves you.
4. He only calls first when he needs something
Again, if someone doesn’t love you and is using you, he would only take the initiative to text or call you when he wants or needs to get something from you.
Ask yourself if your boyfriend hardly reaches out to you first or ask how your day is going without any ulterior motive, just pure concern. Did you find your answer? Make your decision based on that.
3. He avoids introducing you to friends/family
If your partner changes the topic whenever you mention meeting his friends or a family member, it means that they don’t see you in a long-term relationship with them. Instead, he is probably just using you for money, lovemaking, ego, or even clout.
