Control freak

The colloquialism control freak usually describes a person with an obsession with getting things done a certain way. This is why a control freak can become distressed when someone causes a deviation in the way they prefer to do things.

For the Teen Titans supervillain, see Control Freak (villain).

A control freak can also be considered as a person who tries to make others do things the way that they want, even if the other people prefer to do it another way, and even if the initial person has no good reason for interfering.

This expression was introduced around the 1960s.
