Do you really like dominant personalities?

So I really really hate people with Dominant personalities who think that they are only one who could control everything and lead everything and no one can challenge there views or questions them. There were many people like this in my family . When I was alone I pushed them all away and literally I never talked to them doesn't matter if it was my aunt or anyone too close . But now I have a family children's and again I am facing these type of people in my in-laws . Unfortunately this time I can't ignore them or push them away because they are associated with my family too and it's really hard . I mean if I was alone I can deal with them . I have also seen these type of people in there end time are so alone . Like one my aunt was so dominant ruling the entire family ended up with no one around .

I like assertive people, but I do not like dominating people. I think it's one thing to have a dominant personality, but another to be a dominating or domineering person. A dominant person can have many terrific strengths. When they use them as a stronghold over you, it's no longer good for anyone though. I feel for you, as I live with a very domineering person and it gets exhausting. Sometimes you just feel like a bug trying not to get squished into nothing. I hope you can find a healthy balance with your family. Best wishes to you

It really depends what their heart and motivation is. Dominant personalities who have the best interests of people at heart bring a sense of calmness, safety and security to those of us who prefer to be led but if the dominant personalities are not leading in a way that benefits, they become toxic and suffocating.
