Companionship or Competition?

The dynamics of relationships today seem to have changed. It seems that relationships have shifted from being companionships to being competitions. There is a constant power struggle that takes place in homes everyday. There's a battle over who controls this, and who controls that.


Traditionally, the men were the head of the household, and the women and children followed their lead. Now, it seems as if that has changed. Almost to the point that women are seemingly trying to be men and emasculating their husbands and significant others so much that a lot of men choose to leave.

Women seem to want their cake and eat it too. Meaning, they want to wear the pants but still have the perks and free flowing movement that a skirt allows. Well, it doesn't work that way.

People should learn their roles in the relationship upfront and stick to what works for them and not what works for their friends or parents or co-workers or anyone else.

Are there too many chiefs and not enough Indians? Who should lead in the relationship? Are you involved in a competition or a companionship?
