All men want is to be King

Tuesday, March 27, 2007

I was watching a man interact with his wife...he didn't allow her to speak, in fact, she basically sat while he did all the talking for the two of them. It reminded me of situations I'd been in and conversations I'd had where all the man wanted was to be king: to dominate me, convince me to hold his same opinion, support his endeavors. I have no problem with this in a relationship as long as it's reciprocal: I get to be queen when it's my turn. This is the problem with some men: they don't give a woman the chance to be queen, it's all about them. Then they wonder why you're not on their jock? Because you're better than they are and they failed to recognize so they're left sitting on their asses or waiting for some woman who doesn't have as much to offer but lets him be king. Question is how far do you compromise yourself for a relationship?
