Meat of the discussion: Is Edward Cullen an abusive boyfriend?
Questionaire from loveisrespect.org
Does your boyfriend/girlfriend:
Look at you or act in ways that scare you?
Act jealous or possessive?
Put you down or criticize you?
Try to control where you go, what you wear or what you do?
Text or IM you excessively?
Blame you for the hurtful things they say and do?
Threaten to kill or hurt you or themselves if you leave them?
Try to stop you from seeing or talking to friends and family?
Try to force you to have sex before you’re ready?
Do they hit, slap, push or kick you?Source: loveisrespect.org
