Does anyone else have bad control issues?
For example, I struggle when I am not in control of a conversation. If I am being made fun of, or 'banter' at my expense is happening, I can't deal with it. However I can 'banter' at other's expense. (Never rude, and yes I know, I can give it out but can't take it, and that's a flaw in myself).
I think I can banter about others because I feel in control, but if people are laughing at me I don't have a grip on the conversation and it causes a meltdown.
I also have a very 'masculine' energy in my relationship. I make decisions, I take control, etc. I hate things being done a different way to my own way. It gets to the point where I have to go through with my fiancé, step-by-step instructions on how to make soup for me! He's a grown adult, he knows how, but for some reason I feel as if it has to be done by specific way.
I have a hard time letting others cook for me, clean for me, etc without taking over the job myself just so it's done 'correctly'
Anyone else like this?
