The control freak is definitely one to be wary of. Even though you may not ask for it, a controlling partner will give you more than his two cents. He will do everything in his power to ensure you follow his directives – and it's that sense of power that will be a pervading force in your relationship.

In many unions, women assume a more submissive role and allow their partners to control aspects of their relationships, including finances, intimacy, social lives and more. While a perfect relationship (or as close as you can get to this mythical creature) would require equal, that often isn't a reality. A controlling nature also can be a symptom of a bigger issue – physical and verbal abuse. Although not all controlling individuals resort to abuse, it can definitely be a stepping stone for bigger and badder things.
