6 Reasons Why Guys have Control Issues
4. Coz daddy dealt that way with mommy
Most men grow up viewing their fathers as their role models. That’s why, when a little boy sees his father having the last word in most of the decision making situations, he gets the idea that this is the way to be around a woman. When he grows up, he repeats the same behavioral pattern of control with his girlfriend or wife.
5. Man as a provider can control
Most men feel providing for the family gives them the upper hand in everything concerned with the family or relationships. Even when a woman earns in the relationship, most men cannot break away from this clichéd mold. So, they feel they have rightful reasons to control.
6. A psychologically disturbed man is likely to be controlling
Psychoanalysts believe men who have been subjected to a lot of controlling treatment in their childhood are likely to be controlling themselves when they grow up. Since they felt powerless as kids, they will repeat the same pattern of control over somebody else to regain a sense of power.
