Overtly controlling men are the same as hyper passive aggressive ones.

Corri,

Are you saying that you believe GP is overtly controlling? If so, why do you think so?

So far from what I've read from Mojo my impression is that he is a man with opinions, is decisive and is confident in himself. He may or may not be controlling; I just have not read anything that signals for sure that he is. I guess mojo will have to answer whether she has challenged GP at all or not followed his "advice" and how he handled it. To me that would be the bigger clue to whether he is controlling or just opinionated.

As for the overall comment, how is an overtly controlling man the same as a hyper passive aggressive one? Overtly is the opposite of Passive aggressive isn't it?? If you're saying that an overtly controlling man is just as difficult to have a relationship with, then that statement makes more sense to me.
