Unbalanced Power

Being in an unbalanced power relationship could be very frustrating. It can also be very exhausting. But, the feelings depend on what side of the power you are on. If you have more power, you feel that you can dominate everything in that friendship. You feel as if you can decided what your going to do, when your going to do it and how your going to do it and not take your friends suggestions on any part of it. And if they try to suggest something you (being you have more power) shut them down quick, and can possibly say something negative to them. When you have less power in a friendship, you could possibly feel like your nothing compared to your friend who has the power. And that if you try to stick up to your friend that they might criticize you, or not want to be your friend anymore. I think unbalanced power relationships are “crappy” (best word to describe it). I feel that they can either become violent, or mentally and verbally abusive.
