“He accuses me of cheating when I haven't done anything”
What could be going on
Projection: He may be projecting his own temptation or guilt; check whether he's secretive himself.
Jealousy: Fits if he's insecure about losing you; check whether reassurance helps for a while.
Mistrust/abuse schema: Check whether he was betrayed before; old wounds can make innocent things look guilty.
Suspicious of motives: Check whether he suspects hidden motives in friends, colleagues and family too.
Paranoid personality: Fits only if suspicion is rigid, broad and immune to evidence across his life.
Coercive control: Accusations can justify monitoring and restricting you; check whether they lead to new rules.
Questions to carry
- What was happening in his own day or life the last time he accused me?
- When I am accused, what do I start doing to prove myself, and what does it cost me?
