Has your relationship run away from you and you would like to take back some control once again? Do you feel as though you are obeying your partner's decisions in most aspects of your relationship? Would you like to have more input into these decisions? A controlling partner can be very frustrating in a relationship and usually causes the demise of the union.
If you want to take control of your relationship, keep reading.
Start small by simply saying no sometimes when he wants to see you.
He owns a tremendous amount of control over you if you always come running any time he calls.
It's a simple beginning but an effective one; make him wait occasionally and he will have to learn to appreciate the time he has with you.
Find some hobbies or make plans that do not include him, and you will give yourself some perspective on your feelings toward him.
Next, speak up finally when choices need to be made.
If you have allowed him to consistently make all the decisions, then you have offered him that power and you must break the cycle.
To take control of your relationship, state your opinions or desires and stand your ground to be heard.
The relationship is about both parties and both must learn the give and take of compromise and being gracious toward their partner's wishes.
Finally, you might need to talk with him about the different responsibilities you each have.
Make him understand that he owes it to you to abide by your choices in matters that are in your hands and vice versa.
Remember that if you assume responsibility you must also accept the fault if you make a mistake.
That is not a problem, as there is not one person in this world who never makes a mistake.
It might take some effort on your part, but you can take control of your relationship.
