You see a woman "walking" her dog, getting dragged about every which way as the dog leads her. On the other hand, you have a woman walking her boyfriend/husband, yanking him by the collar as he happily abides by her every command. It's pathetic.

If you're going to get into a relationship (which is already risky enough), make sure that you are the leader. Or, you could just GYOW and separate yourself from these situations in the first place.
