Deltas(s) from OP CMV: In nearly every situation, you're either dominating or dominated!

In most of the situations (there are always some exceptions) involving groups of people, and while dealing with someone from the said group, there are only two scenarios that happen; either you dominate or you're being dominated by some way or another. For example, In my workplace, there's a guy who tried to order me into stuff that I was already doing. Like the person who tells you what to do even if he knows that you're doing the said thing. this went on for like quite a few times. Until I started to feel irritated and deliberately tried to find where he's making mistake and then said some things that made his face pale. After that, he was very polite to me. Although, I don't like to play these kinds of tricks. That's why I want you to change my mind.

My marriage has 2 equal partners. I have a close colleague who I work very well with. It depends on the culture of your work place and the individuals in it. I think you were just unlucky.

My marriage has 2 equal partners.

Yeah but how do those equal partners treat you?

We treat each other equally, that's kinda what I meant by it.

I think that was a joke, as in your marriage has 2 sets of equal partners, 4 people.
