What's beneficial? This will sound shallow but I like the affection - the hugs and cuddles. They manage to get rid of all the horrible things about our relationship and make it better temporarily until the next problem. They take my mind off things.

I'm coming in a little late, but these are all red flags. What would be next? What you wear out in front of the public is not OK? The way you do the dishes is not OK? Control comes out in all sorts of ways. This is just the first of it. Hugs and cuddles, I understand... that can be a powerful force to want to keep someone. Same with good sex. But these are warning signs of what's to come. Seems it's still early enough to break it off before you're too attached and having worse issues. Wishing you all the best, whatever decision you make!
