If you've never worn a partial before, how do you know if the fit is
proper. What are the signs that a partial fits too tight and is pulling
on the other teeth too hard or if that is normal?

There is no reason for you to be expected to know. Pain obviously is a
red flag. Otherwise your dentist should be able to help you here.

It is possible to check it using PIP indicators or similar methods. Of
course it cost extra time and money
