If you really love the one you`re with, you`re going to have to find a way to let go of being controlling, whether SHE is or not. She is the way she is, and you are the way you are. Neither of you will change how the other person is, that is NOT in your respective paremeters. You cannot change another person, only how you REACT to them. Find a way to get along .. There must be some common ground between you.
Find what is good in her, and work on what is the good stuff, and if you can step back, you WILL find it.
I`ve had wonderful m-in-laws, even with unsuccessful marriages along the way. They knew when to butt out .. Or got the hint when they didn`t know enough. The one I have with the man of my dreams now is a gem .. And I would not trade her for the world. He must have been cut from the same mold (and he`s adopted, so imagine that!)
Cut a little slack along the way, and you might get some back!
