I think submissive
I think both, I feel like we balance each other out.
Submissive until I am put into a corner most times.
I wouldn't say one is more or less than the other; I would say that sometimes one of us exhibits more or less dominance than the other at times. I tend to act more dominant, though I am trying to not be so rigid about everything and be understanding.
I say we are equal on this one.
I think, sometimes i was the dominant person in a relationship, sometimes the submissive one
Eh I think we have a mutual relationship. But bedroom wise I'm more dominate
We balance out well. I think I tend to be more dominant in daily life, but I think I am more submissive in intimate situations
We are both alphas. We compete and share in a balance.
Its funny because at times i likebeing in control but i alsoenjoy when she takes me and throws me on the bed and has her way with me. I wont complain either way butsometimes i feellike ioverwhelm her with the amount of sex i want
I think once upon a time, I was more dominant but now I'm more submissive
Certain roles (and different circumstances) require various levels of leadership and levels of energy. In terms of trip and vacation planning. I don't mind providing input, but I'm not into planning everything. In other areas, I'm clearly dominant, but I like balance.

Submissive
I think it's a pretty even balance. We have a great relationship and it's hot, regardless of who is "in charge"! I love it!!!
You tend to defer to my needs and wishes and I try hard to make sure that your needs and wishes are an equal priority. I won't completely relax until I know for sure that we are systematically meeting your needs and wishes consistently. I love you so much and I don't want either of us to be dominant or submissive. Xxxxoooo
Uhm... I think it depends on the situation. We tend to switch who's leading depending on setting and topic ect.
