The most important thing in any relationship is to respect each other and maintain each other's independence. But often our partner dominates us. Let's know how to recognize if your partner is dominating you.

Relationship Essentials - Love, respect and equality are good for any relationship. But if one partner is constantly belittling the other, this is not good for either relationship. You have to try to change this situation.

Investment of time is required - For a relationship to be healthy, you both need to spend time together. Share your planning and thoughts with each other. If a partner always avoids citing lack of time, this is not appropriate.

They want to make all the decisions - Be it a woman or a man, the dominating partner prefers to make all the decisions himself. When and where to go for a walk, how much to spend, what clothes to wear, who to talk to, who not to. Adapt them to your every habit and need.

Wants Attention - Dominant partners are very conscious of their partner. They want constant attention from their partner. Such people do not prioritize their partner's needs. Every time they want to fulfill their needs and tasks.

Need Personal Space - Every person needs personal space in his life. They don't like someone tampering with everything or work. If your partner does not respect your personal space, then it is considered dominating.

Why does this happen? - According to psychology, some people have a dominating personality, while others develop this habit due to time and circumstances. But whatever the situation, if one partner is causing trouble to the other, both of them should talk about it calmly.

There is nothing wrong with... - If you feel suffocated in your relationship, you can seek the help of a counselor instead of aggravating. It will help you to move your relationship forward and live life well.
