We've all been micro managed before. And whether it's being done professionally or personally, it's no less irritating.
I used to be annoyed by micro managers because I thought they were doing it on purpose, and it was due to a lack of trust in me.
But trust is only a part of it. The other part? Control.
Some people are just afraid to lose, relinquish or not have control. So it manifests itself in other ways, such as micro management/obsession with the minutia.
If you're one of those people who hate to not be in control, the fact of the matter is that you can't control every situation. No matter how much you plan and prepare and harp on the details, something will always be outside of your purview.
Pick a project, pick an event, pick a situation and Just. Let. Go. The world will not end.
