Wondering why he contols you too much

Very often, a man might not even realize that his need to control is unreasonable. It might be how he was raised and how he saw the father-figure in his life treat his mother. Or, the complete opposite - his mother may have been the dominant partner in the relationship and he made a decision he would never be brow-beaten like his dad.

The most common reason for wanting control is because of fear of losing you. They believe that control is the best way to keep you with them.

Another reason is their own lack of self-esteem. He is using you as a means of lifting himself. By putting you down, it gives him (in his mind) a level of superiority.

Sometimes, a man simply thinks he’s doing it for all the right reasons. Men are programmed to problem solve. Your girlfriends are programmed to empathize, but your man is biologically instructed to Get Things Sorted. They don’t understand you don’t want something fixed; you just want them to listen.
Because he’s a bully.
