    Well. If the women stop running after men and visa versa, then we got problems. But I think both parts should be aggressors. men like to know we´re men in a relationship, not aggressive as violent or dominant. But I think men and women alike like to have a tat of dominance in a relationship just to feel in control to some extent..

    I don't think anybody has to be the agressor. Men can pursue women, and women can pursue men. It doesn't make one of them more agressive. It's about finding a balance between the two of them, so that they feel equal. xx

    No you aren't a horrible person just a bit irresponsible. If you knew that alcohol blacks you out then you should not have accepted the drinks from the business contacts. Maybe you should have said to them, "no thank you I am the one driving tonight" or "no thank you I have an allergy to alcohol" sometimes "no thank you" is all that is required. But since you did drink and your guy was not a friend nor bf to you that night then I think you should just forget him and go your own way. Its obvious and clear that he does not think of you too highly and if he had then he would have prevented you from getting too drunk by intercepting the drinks and maybe bought you some soda or coffee instead. I think you have learned your lesson from this. No more need to beat yourself up any further. Just move on with your life and forget your ex...after all if he is your ex then treat him as such.

    Depends...are they dating or married? Dominant behavior is different when you are dating as opposed to being married due to the dynamics of the structure that dating or marriage involves. Complex issue to briefly explain here because there is no rule of "who is to be" the aggressor or dominant partner. Ideally, each person should be dominant in one area and passive in another. A person may do well aggressively in one specific area and remain passive in another area that their partner can dominate.

    Source(s): Been married for 30 years, dated him for 6 years.

    In a relationship both partners are with the same importance. both of them are equally important. in some things guys are and should be dominant and in other things ladies are and should be dominant.

    so one can't clap with one hand. so both hands make good clapping.

    the mutuall thing is trust. both of the partners should trust each other and a relationship always grow more and more.
