Okay, you must think I'm nuts. I saw HIM (my ex) this evening. I had a gift certificate for Applebees and took him out to dinner. After dinner, he came home with me and helped me install a new antivirus program on my laptop. He worked on my computer for about an hour-and-a-half. Just took over doing this and that, deleting and adding items. When I told him I wanted to reinstall my internet provider's tried and proven security system, he told me not to do it, that he had better ideas. I called WOW anyway and asked about reinstalling the security system. During my conversation with the service rep on the other end of the line, my ex kept shoving notes he'd written under my nose for me to ask this question and that question. He completely tried to take over and dominate me every step of the way. After I hung up the phone he still kept trying to tell me what to do with my computer to the point of beginning to argue with me. I told him I felt he was not respecting my boundaries and if he would please stop. Well, he wouldn't. He just kept on arguing with me and making it sound as if I was in the wrong for wanting a little peace and quiet while talking to someone on the phone about my computer. I nicely asked my ex to leave. Told him there was really nothing to be gained by arguing and that I felt he didn't respect my feelings and was unnecessarily domineering and demanding. Of course he would not acknowledge any responsibility for his domineering behavior, let alone apologize. But he sure made me feel like a creton.

So to answer your question, "Do you know someone like this?" I DO, AND I'M STUPID FOR LETTING THIS GO ON. MAYBE THIS IS THE EYE-OPENER I NEED AND FINALLY GOT.
