How Do YOu Get What YOu Want From a Man (or Woman) |
Sandra Harmon

Well, everybody, we have had a raging discussion on another topic about how to get man to change. In this instance, we were talking about Sherry getting her husband to give up smoking and take care of his health especially with his prostate problem which affects many areas of their life, including his lack of sexual desire.
We have had suggestions about hitting him over the head with a frying pan, threatening to leave him, witholding sex, not cooking for him, etc. We have also had suggestions which included giving him good sex and then laying out her feelings. And then there is acceptance, rejection, negotiation and manipulation..
So lets hear from all of you, even if you are not presently in a relationship. If and when you have been at odds with your significant other, how do you get them to do what you want, especially if it is a matter of health. Or even if it isn't. And what do you do when they won't?
How do people in a successful relationship work these problems out to a happy conclusion. Or how have you screwed things up in the past?
I for one used to scream for what I wanted, like my mother, until I learned that it was exactly the wrong way to behave. It took me a long time to learn good communication skills and use them successfully.
I believe that you cant change anyone. You can only change yourself in a way that changes what you permit yourself to accept or reject.
What do you think?
