[NAKED Podcast] Is This Love or Control?
Love is supposed to feel safe, supportive, and full of trust. But what happens when care starts to feel like control? In this episode of NAKED Questions, we dive into a heartfelt letter from Camila, who adores her boyfriend but can’t shake the feeling that some of his “caring” behaviors might actually be signs of control. He checks in constantly, worries about where she is, and always wants to be involved in her decisions. Sweet gestures? Or red flags?
Ana and Fer jump into the discussion, unpacking that fine line between love and control. When does concern become possessiveness? When does “I just want what’s best for you” turn into emotional manipulation? And most importantly—how do you know if you’re in a healthy relationship or slowly losing your sense of self? These are uncomfortable but necessary questions, and we don’t shy away from them.
The truth is, control can sometimes disguise itself as love, making it hard to recognize. But love, real love, is about freedom—not fear. It’s about trust, not constant monitoring. If a relationship starts feeling like a cage, even a beautifully decorated one, is it really love?
We’re peeling back the layers on this complicated issue, so if you’ve ever second-guessed a partner’s actions or wondered about your own boundaries, this episode is for you. Tune in now, because love should never come with invisible chains.
