Hey guys,

I have a question that has been rattling around in my brain for a couple weeks now and I'd like to see what TRP has to say about it.

I see a lot of topics on "domination" of women (dread game, etc) and I was wondering, how do you know when you are in a relationship where you are dominant vs the woman just having low self esteem?

Let me clarify,

I have a couple friends with girlfriends (HB 7/8) that seem to be very submissive, but also have barely any personality. Like no hobbies, no aspirations, nothing but doing shit to make the boyfriends happy. While I don't plan on being in a relationship for a while, is it wrong for me to want a little bit more than that?

I don't really care for that mushy, lovey dovey shit but I feel like if I do get into a relationship in the future, I want to be able to actually be friends with the girl (similar interests, personality, etc)

Are these two ideas incompatible with TRP? Have I just not fully accepted this or are these two ideas mutually exclusive?
