Here are some behaviors to watch out for:
Too close, too fast [coming on too strong] . . . .
Green-eyed monster [jealous and throwing tantrums] . . . .
You’re wearing THAT?!? [criticizing clothing choices] . . . .
Control freak [monitoring daily activities and dictating clothes, friends, access to family] . . . .
Blame game [he’s the victim and nothing is ever his fault] . . . .
