How To Regain Control Of Your Relationship With Your Man Before It's Too Late
Posted on Tuesday, August 21, 2012 by Unknown
Do you feel that your relationship and everything you've worked so hard for is slipping out of your hands? Would you like to find out what you need to do to take back control of your relationship? Are you involved with a man who likes to be in charge and this has left you feeling powerless? The best relationships are all about give and take and there needs to be a balance if both of you are going to be happy. If your relationship is not what you'd like it to be, then maybe it's time you took back control of your relationship.
Why Did Things Get Out Of Hand In The First Place?
Before you take back some control of your relationship, you may have to take a close look at how things have gotten to where they are. Maybe you just got tired of struggling with him and thought for the sake of your relationship that it would be easier to just give in.
Perhaps you even thought that as a woman it's easier for you to live without being in charge, than it would be for him. And honestly sometimes it's just easier to let someone else make the decisions. But now you see that wasn't the wisest thing to do, so the only solution is to change things up.
It's time to own up and be honest with him. You need to let him know that you're not happy with the way things are and want things to change. Don't be surprised if he acts surprised. After all, he hasn't really changed. So you can realistically expect one of two reactions.
What May Happen
Best case scenario is that he is relieved and happy to give up some of the decision making responsibilities and share them with you. If this happens you are in a well-balanced caring relationship.
But it may not be that easy. He may even get stubborn, and if he does you may want to back off and rethink your approach because confrontation isn't going to get you anywhere fast. This is where you use your womanly ways to get your way. Start with small stuff. If you always go out for breakfast on Sunday mornings to the same restaurant with the same people, invite some new friends to join you.
Making The Most Of The Downtime
Develop a new interest, sign up for a course, or start planning a girl's night once every couple of weeks. Encourage him to get together with his friends when you're with yours, so he doesn't object to you being out. If he's having a good time when you're out, he'll be less likely to complain.
But the worst case scenario could also happen. That's where he takes a stand and refuses to budge. Either you put up with the inequalities in your relationship and let him remain in control or you break it off with him because he is not going to change to any great extent.
There has to be a healthy balance if a relationship is going to last and you may have to take back some control of your relationship to get there. But that can be harder than it looks, so if you need some support doing it, you can get it right here.
