How do you know if the person you've just met is a control freak?

I would not take that by itself as being a control freak...if they tell you what to think, wear, or whom to asscioate with then that is a control freak

She told me,I hope you don't wear runners all the time.Then she said, I hate runners. Then I said, ok see ya!No shit! Me ex was very controlling. Never will I go through that again.its deadly!

If it escalates from that, which is very likely.
