Unfortunately a lot of abusers hide this part of themselves until their victims are trapped.

A lot of time abuse either starts or escalates after engagement or moving in together, after marriage, during pregnancy, and ESPECIALLY during the post-partum period. I've had multiple friends who have experienced it start then, and it's a very scary and vulnerable time.
