If my boyfriend criticizes me everyday, is this unhealthy?
He will criticize if I don't have dinner ready or if I have a glass of wine or if I forget to shut a window or if I get excited about a current event/ political topic... Is this normal for everyone? that boyfriends criticize almost everything?

No, that's not a good thing. If he really loves you, he shouldn't be criticizing you so much, especially for such trivial matters like forgetting to shut a window. Next time he starts criticizing you, tell him that you are your own person and that you wish he'd stop criticizing you. If it continues, tell him more firmly, and if it goes on even longer, consider breaking up if it makes you feel bad about yourself.

No, this is not normal. You are becoming so numb to it that you think it's normal.
Your boyfriend should give you compliments, tell you that your are the best and that he is lucky to have you.
ditch this jerk, he's not worth it.
There are guys out there that will make you feel like a Princess.
I married a man like you describe and was miserable every day. After he cheated on me and I left, I met a man who tells me every day that I'm amazing and tells me that he respects me because I am so intelligent and good.
There are guys out there that know how to treat a lady, the one you got is an idiot who does not know.

no, that is not a healthy relationship. in a good relationship he will tell you the good things about you as well as helping you with you're faults. Remind him that you are only human. Nobody should be criticized all the time, and he should realize encouragement and thankfulness for what you actually do for him is a better way to connect with you.

No it not normal. Yes it is unhealthy. You need to either point it out to him that he does that and see if he stops. If he doesn't stop then you should break up with him. Sorry but his behavior is actually a border line of abuse, because of how you feel when he does it. If this is making you stressed or putting you down then its abuse, even if he isn't being violent towards you.

Get away from this person NOW. Be prepared, he will most likely come after you and not allow you to leave. If this happens go to the police.
If you were to marry this guy, he would probably start beating you up.

Absolutely NOT normal! It could be that he does not realize how he is coming across to you. You should point it out to him, and if it continues after that, get rid of the bum!

It's not normal and you need to ask yourself if this is how you want to live the rest of your life.
The only person you can change is yourself. You can't change him.

No this is not normal and yes this is unhealthy. It's controlling and manipulative.
I would not put up with this myself. I'd be out the door so fast my dust would choke him.

No.
Not normal.
He has deep seated insecurities about himself and is projecting his own shortcomings on you.
Leave, soon.
