The height of insecurity is demonstrated in the control freak, who can also be an abusive man. Women will fall for the control freak, because they initially mistake the intent of the man’s control in the relationship. When he sets out from the start with: We’re going to do this, we’re going to do that, I’m going to pick you up at such and such a time, women will often mistake it as strength. Over time, once the woman is already emotionally committed to the relationship, the abusiveness tends to come out. People can hide who they really are for the first 90 days of a relationship.
