Situations while beginning to date.
Obvious example would be on where to go.
Controlling person will insist on their choice(s).
Yet this can also be seen on how they behave around their friends even family.
Note a controller may very well have no family. Yet they usually do have friends.
Problem comes when they have neither. They maybe just be loners. Not necessarily controllers. Then see how they behave around your friends and family. A controller will hate that. A loner not necessarily. Loners usually attempt to go along.
