An important news flash for you: Your better half is actually not “detail oriented”—he’s a control freak. He controls you, your children and attempts to control everything around you. You make yourself feel better by applying other labels, but it’s straight up control freak. After seeing firsthand how he reacts when someone outside of his sphere of control does not do as he directs…it’s scary. I can deal with his shitty under-breath-comments when I don’t do as he says but if you don’t think his children are already doing as they see you’re deluding yourself. They cycle has already restarted. —A Pig By Any Other Name

She calls him “detail oriented” cause “wife beater” hasn’t beeen acceptable since the 50’s.
TRUE LOVE MEANS.” NEVER HAVING TO SAY HE’S SORRY”.
Yeah, she’s in denial because she’s tied to this albatross with a couple of children. There’s only so much you can do OP sadly.
He’ll probably go and bolt himself in his room when you come to visit in the future.
OP
Next time he flips out tell him you might set up an appointment with a family therapist. He can’t stop you and it will definitely make him think.
OP. Have you actually talked to the person that you have mentioned being “controlled”? It’s no good to write about it if you haven’t addressed the issue to this individual.
