Being discouraged from seeing family and friends.

Being verbally undermined/criticised.

Being sidelined when it comes to decision making, especially financial.

These are some pretty big ones. Id also like to add that an abuser can also use expressions of not knowing what to do if their partner left them, including the possibility of harming themselves, as leverage to make their partner feel guilty over considering leaving.

TC, highly recommend this resource (assuming you are US based, if you are not there are hopefully similar services where you are).

https://www.thehotline.org/identify-abuse/understand-relationship-abuse/

This should help explain some of the signs that are harder to immediately see, and there are resources for contacting someone to talk through these concerns you have.
