Do you shoot straight from the hip and get to the point quickly in conversation? You are probably a Dominant personality type. If so, you may be in a relationship with someone who thinks you come on a little too strong or maybe even rude! If that’s the case, follow this advice to bring sweet harmony to your relationship!
First, understand that your personality type is only 10% of the population. This may be surprising to you because you probably surround yourself by other people just like you, except for your mate and you think they are the ones with the problem. Reality is that you are making 90% of the population feel insecure because of your strong personality type. You’ve got to “tone it down” a bit when dealing with your mate. You cannot call them on the phone and have a straight forward conversation like you could with your friends and co-workers. Instead of calling your mate and quickly spouting off what you need, then hanging up without so much as an “I love you” take a moment to let your mate know that you appreciate their help with whatever you are calling about and even though you are busy now, you really look forward to talking to them later.

Don’t forget to tell them you love them and can’t wait to see them. Now to your personality type this probably sounds like a total waste of time. You may be thinking “Why can’t I just get what I need and my mate understand that I am busy?” Here is the reality: you will spend more time fighting about the way that you are currently doing it, than taking a few extra seconds to do it the way suggested above. It will actually SAVE you time, and you know how much you love to save time! Give it a try and you’ll be amazed!
