controlling/domineering

How might one say that someone is "controlling," the adjective meaning domineering?
Mi novio pienso que soy..... "controlling?"
I am trying to explain that he thinks that I am too domineering in our relationship?
What is either the translation for the English adjective "controlling," or another, fit (Spanish) word?
Thanks!

Hi Kegreen,
An appropriate word to use here would be "dominante"
Here is a link to the dictionary entry available on this site: dominante

It seems that controlar would work
to take control -> ponerse al mando, tomar el control to have control over -> controlar to be in control of -> estar al cargo de (in charge of)
