10. They're Meaner Than They Used To Be

10. They're Meaner Than They Used To Be

This one is the very opposite from the previous sign - imagine that all of a sudden your partner has become meaner toward you. Even the smallest mistake or remark annoys them. Nothing you ever do is satisfying to them. The dinner you made never tastes good, and anything you say is dismissed as being stupid. In some cases the problem might escalate, your partner might start yelling at you or in the worst case scenario they might lift a hand on you and inflict physical harm.

According to psychologists, this type of behavior is due to abusive relationships a person has suffered in their childhood. If someone does something like that there is a very high probability that the parents they grew up with were violent towards that person. It is a vicious cycle. Later in life, they might do those same things to their partner. Even the people who are at the receiving end stay in these relationships because the abuse they suffered makes them believe that being harmed by your partner is "love."

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
