Is there a word for someone who always thinks about his girlfriend?

He does not let her go on Facebook, he only lets her do things that he wants, he always dotes on her, he does not like when she talks to other people.

Best Answer

A common contemporary term for this is "controlling", as in "over-controlling".

He was very controlling of their relationship and never let her go out with friends.

He was a very controlling person and habitually read her personal email and texts.

Another, more extreme possibility is "domineering", which implies the person dominates the relationship:

His domineering personality made it so that she couldn't leave the house without telling him where she was going, and when she would be back home.
