Have you ever been in a relationship where one person tended to be the dominant, lead or control how the relationship worked? This can be done in a healthy way when all parties agree, such as with D/s (dominance and submission). But what happens when you find yourself in an imbalanced power dynamic that was non-consensual? Perhaps it happened accidentally, but how can you identify what’s going on, help manage it, and work to adjust things with your partner?
