If someone is physically threatening you or trying to intimidate you, then you will likely know it. You may recognize verbal cues or see body language that signals an intent to hurt you. You might also recognize the smell of drinks or odors often associated with weapons, which could indicate a physical threat. Pay attention to any uneasy feelings that arise and trust your inner wisdom when discerning whether someone means you harm.

If someone is trying to physically hurt you, they may make threats or use intimidation techniques. Additionally, if the person has been previously abusive or violent towards you then they could be warning signs that this behavior will continue. Other warning signs can include increased aggression and shouting, possessive behavior, controlling tendencies and being excessively jealous. If someone is displaying any of these behaviors it's important to take protective measures such as reaching out to friends or family for help and finding a safe place to stay.
