What Dominate people do
It can be fun to read someone who is trying to dominate you. When you see the following your awareness alone can allow you let them think they are dominating you... little do they know you are on to them and that means you have the upper hand!
A few signs to look for when someone trying to dominate you:
- Most dominate people will try to control the conversation. I find that usually means they do all the talking.
- You will also find they tend to smile very little.
- They tend to talk very loudly, even over you.
- They will interrupt or try to finish your sentence.
- Usually they adopt a straddle stance.
Whenever you notice any of these items. I would suggest taking a step back in your mind. Allow yourself time to breath and start asking some pointed questions of the person you are will to attempt to break their pattern. This may allow them to move to a more submissive place. Which we will discuss in another post.

I know a number of people who dominate. I usually just let them, unless it's very important that I get a word in or they are denigrating.

Great communication about dominate communicating and relating. Now when I DESIRE to build the relationship, I HAVE learned to... slow down, look, observe and draw out the other person.
