I really enjoyed yesterdays discussion on power and it's bases of influence. Much of what was discussed would seem like an obvious thing once it's explained, but wasn't something I had thought of before in my own relationship. For example, the principle of least interest. After I thought about it that principle seems so dead on. It made me think about different instances where my boyfriend and I would just be debating what we would do for the night, and it always did seem like the person with the least interest had the greatest power over the situation. My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 years now, and I have to admit that we have most likely both displayed all six of the sources at one point or another. Although I would say that there are definately one or two that are displayed more consistantly than others.
