Comment: “I will make sure I collect everything from you before you leave.”
This is a controlling, threatening statement — not a joke. It suggests coercion and an intent to seize or withhold a partner’s belongings, and it normalizes emotional and material intimidation. Relationships require consent, respect and clear boundaries; threatening to take someone’s possessions is abusive and may be illegal. Publicly bragging about such behavior also signals dangerous entitlement. If you see comments like this, treat them as a warning sign: victims deserve support, and anyone facing threats should consider documenting evidence and seeking legal or professional help.
Red flag 🚩: threats to control a partner’s property = abusive behavior.
