How can you tell when your partner is dominant in the relationship?

Often a man will think he is the dominant one in a relationship when in reality its the woman through various forms of manipulation is the dominant one. He works to provide for her and decisions he has made are for her benefit or have been put into his head by her or he has been nagged into it, anything to keep her happy. When he does something she approves of she encourages, when he does something wrong she is vocal about it.

I don't understand how it would be a question. The dominant partner would be the one taking the lead in most situations.

By testing him. What can you get away with?

A dominant man is not an abusive man. But my ex would spank me if I was out of line and he loved me. A dominant man will protect you even when you dont like it. He will put your safety and needs above your feelings.

Best way to tell, you're walking in the mall and someone grabs your purse. Do you run him down or does your partner?

By asking yourself what's the ratio of yes/no you tell them versus the ratio of yes to no they tell you

Nobody said it was. Just said how do you know if someone is dominant or not

Well if you feel submissive , then the other is dominant

If you can't tell someone is dominant then they most definitely not.

If you have to ask then yes... your partner is more than likely the dominant one

I would not have a dominant partner, I never let a woman raise her voice to me.
