All good. Exactly where you place "even" in each sentence matters a great deal. You get a good sentence almost no matter where you put it, but the meaning changes. For example, your sentence "He even wants to control what color clothes I wear" is correct but "even" modifies "wants" and that might not be what you intend. Such a sentence would make sense in this context: "He doesn't just make a habit of controlling the color of my clothes, he even WANTS to control the color of my clothes.
