* DestructiveRomance: Elizabeth and John's relationship is ''not'' a healthy one and takes a toll on Elizabeth's mental stability in particular. John's BDSM-themed behavior and mind games border on or cross into physical and emotional abuse, as Elizabeth is clearly uncomfortable with and openly protests some aspects of the relationship. She becomes increasingly dependent on him [[LivingEmotionalCrutch for emotional stability]] despite him holding her at arm's length emotionally-speaking, while he begins [[ControlFreak controlling all aspects of her life]]. John treats it as a game, apparently oblivious until the very end to the fact his behavior is having a serious negative impact on Elizabeth. [[spoiler:John finally admits he does truly care about Elizabeth, but his manipulative and cruel behavior has already prompted her to leave him]].
