Signs Of An Abusive Friendship
These are some things I’ve noticed in past relationships I’ve had, and since abusive friendships aren’t something I see discussed often, I thought I would share! This is not a complete list, and I am not a mental health professional.
- Hitting, scratching, insulting, or otherwise causing you harm because “that’s how they show love”
- Refusing to do things you want to do, always doing what they want to do
- If they agree to do something you want to do, they make sure you don’t enjoy it
- Threatening to stop being your friend if you don’t agree to do something
- Threatening you with violence if you don’t agree to do something
- Belittling and/or dismissing your problems
- Putting down your achievements and accomplishments
- Humiliating you repeatedly and/or intentionally
- Making hurtful commentary about you and/or people you care about
- Saying that they are the only one who could ever be your friend
- Putting you in uncomfortable or dangerous situations
- Making you keep hurtful and/or distressing things a secret or as an “inside joke”
- Assigning traits and characteristics to you that they think you should be, and forcing you to fit them
- Making you doubt the severity of your experiences with them
- Making you doubt the existence of your experiences with them
- Refusing to acknowledge that they’re capable of hurting you because you’re friends
- Using your private information against you as blackmail or leverage
- Making you afraid to say no or disagree, in case they hurt you and/or themselves
- Other people have commented on the way they treat you
If anyone is treating you this way, please tell someone. You deserve to have safe and happy friendships. There are good people out there who will be your friend, and you are capable of being loved by others.

Haven’t read any of them yet but Jack Dempsey’s Championship Fighting is considered mandatory reading for boxing theory. Seen excerpts from his book and it definitely provides interesting perspective.
I’ll add more books when I come across them.
Writing advice from my uni teachers:
- If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.
- Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.
- Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.
- Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.
This is legit good writing advice, especially the first bullet point! In playwriting class we did a bit where every bit of dialogue had to be an accusatory question and it was glorious.
The Shadow Boxer — I’ve wanted to doodle Gengar as someone’s shadow for ages now, but when I started this doodle a whole year ago, I never expected to get distracted millions of times before I could finish it ^^;;
With that said, I appreciate any support on this one, but most importantly, I hope you guys enjoy!
