I try to be dominant, but somehow it never works!
Dominant and I feel like a boss ;D haha
Im the submissive one because i'm a little more care free. However, it doesnt bother me much because i like a dominant man who can lead the way as the head of the household. Besides i know i'm his support and backbone that keeps our family comfortable and prepared for anything. It all balances out because where he is weak i'm strong and vice versa! :)
I think this is where she and I have problems. We are both headstrong and both try to take control but yet we are both a little submissive towards each other as well. I think we need more clarification in determining our "roles"
I def am not dom. nor do I want to be. Some times there is peace in submission.
We are both equal

Hmm. It depends on the situation. We are both dominant and submissive in our various roles. We play to our strengths. Niether of us have an issue taking on the other role as long as we get what needs to be done accomplished. We actually really do compliment each other in that way.
I think we r pretty equal. In fact sometimes we r too much alike
I think I am a little of both but would like to be less submissive. Would like him to be more of a decision maker but he's not.
I am more dominant than I want to sometimes men don't think things through so I'm just there to not let him half ass it which sometimes makes him mad, don't always know how to word things.
I think it's split 50/50 sometimes but when it comes to major decisions he's the more dominant I just add a little input.
I'm more dominant in regards to the social elements of things, or the free-thinking elements of things. She is definitely more dominant in the organizational elements. And I like it because I ultimately hope we both rub off on each other a lot over the course of our marriage, and become two well-rounded people!
I am dominant when I need to be but for the most part I think I am submissive but in a MAN WAY.....!!!!
I'm both. I guess it's better that way . Idk of she wants me to be the dominant type but Everytime I try to be dominant it never works out. I just try to make her happy and give her options
submissive.. pfffff.. pero weno :p
