Mindful Doodles #180 – Couple Dynamics
In power dynamics, each partner wants to wrestle control. The man thinks he is the master of the house. His female partner or wife has her ego too. She thinks she is the mistress of the house. She wants to have her say and the upper hand.
The delicate balance of power is fraught with anxiety. They don’t speak directly of the power struggle, but hurl side glances at each other, when they struggle for dominance.
What would you do in this situation? You would think and meditate on the right response. You alone know the facts of the case. You will consider your local culture, traditions, your personal boundaries and what you are willing to compromise and sacrifice.
