Every couple on earth has some form of power struggle, as there are many different facets of a relationship. For example, there may be struggles (disagreements) about money, how to raise kids, occupation choices of each mate, family relationships, friend relationships, hobbies, work habits, sex, and many more.
The key to maintaining a happy, long-term relationship is true communication. I know that can be difficult sometimes because it can be tough to talk about things that bother you, and because you do not want to upset your mate. But, it is mandatory to tell your mate what bothers you; if you don’t, the problem may never go away. Again, true communication is an important key in having a wonderful and happy long-term relationship.
Sometimes it might be best to write down the things that bother you and then give this written communication to your mate. Another huge key is to not get “angry” about things that bother you. When anyone gets “angry” they lose control of logic and reason. You must have a completely open mind about any differences of opinion in a relationship. Your partner may be looking at the problem you have from a completely different perspective. Again, use logic and reason and be open to understand your partner’s viewpoint.
When I am with my key people in business, I always ask their opinions about important decisions. I hate “yes people” that only mirror my opinions. I want intelligent people around me that voice their opinions. Many times their opinions are more logical than mine. I feel very secure in who I am, so if their opinions about something significant is better than mine, I will do it their way in a second.
If your mate is not open-minded at all, then you have a serious long-term problem. You either have to live with that fact and deal with it, or leave.
Most of the “Power Struggles” a couple has is really due to poor “true communication.”
Please remember, “You Can Do Almost Anything In The World That You Want To Do — IF — You Want To Do It Bad Enough.” That word “IF” is a huge word.
“Yes, You Can Do It!”
Good luck, my friends, good luck.
