Relationship Dominance

Describes the need for one person to be dominant in a relationship.

     Every relationship has a dominant person. Most people always see this person as to be the male. In all cases this is entirely not true. Regardless of who the dominant person in a relationship is, there has to be a more dominant person for the relationship to last. Some people will tell you that they have a mutual powered relationship, this is not true. In some way fashion, shape, or form one person is more dominant than the other.

   When i say dominant I do not mean in a total controlling only one way to do things matter. I mean in one person that takes care of the responsibilities, works, pays bills, other things. True both people can work and bring home money and both pay bills. But who is the person that makes absolute sure its taken care of? The biggest test of dominance is through children. When your child wants to go somewhere or they want something who’s permission do they get?

  Dominance has been around for forever and will continue to be until there is no life forms left. Even in animal relationships you have the more dominant creature. Dominance has to be present in a relationship for it to work out in the long run. You can not both decide different ways to run your household. While in some cases you have the few couples who decide every single little thing together, which is very rare, most the time you have one person making the decisions and the other person going along with them. i am not saying;however, that the other person never makes a decision or ever opposes the dominant person choice. This of course is where disagreements and arguments come from.

    The true power lies with the one who can get their way without having to make the other feel like they had to give it up. I run our house because I am the older one… even though hubby has 10 years on me. BUT I\’m careful to let him have some controlling factors so he doesn\’t feel like it\’s all about me. Balance is the key to everything in a family.

    I agree, there is no such thing as 50/50 in a relationship, it varies from day to day to 60/40, 80/20, 90/10 ….. and goes on depending on what life throws at you as a family or as a couple. Sometimes he’ll pick up the ball, sometimes is you. That is what creates the balance.
