All of us seem to have a craving for power. We are all driven to get control over the situations we find ourselves in, and mostly, over our partners.We think to ourselves - "If she would only do what we want her to do," or "If he would only do what I need him to do," then life would be better. In some ways, these things might be true.How we go about getting what we want often turns into attempts to get power and control over our partners. This, of course, happens when we ourselves feel powerlessWhen we feel powerless we feel overwhelmed, out of control and helpless. It’s unbearable. So, we try desperately to regain a sense of control.
