00:00I first got into relationship in June 2021.
00:04So it was quite good to start with?
00:07Yeah, it was.
00:09I just got on well and we sort of connected and had similar interests.
00:25He was nice, he was thoughtful at the beginning.
00:32Felt like he was my protector.
00:36I'd say within a couple of months things started to go wrong.
00:44It wasn't protective, it was like becoming an ownership.
00:51So to start getting off really small things at first,
00:57checking my phone, asking about my day,
01:03but it wasn't because he was interested in my day.
01:07It's, you know, who have I come into contact with or, you know,
01:11have I spoken to somebody and over a period of time
01:17it went from being a small thing to a big thing.
01:24Being isolated from my friends and my family
01:31and even not being able to take care of my children.
01:47Yeah.
01:48Yeah.
01:49Yeah.
01:50Yeah.
01:51Yeah.
