You know you're pussy-whipped when you become falsely agreeable.

When a man lacks a backbone because he's afraid of displeasing his woman, his woman eventually learns that she can take advantage of him. And then she begins to resent him for being such a wuss. And then she loses all respect for him.

But you can take control of the relationship and make both you and your woman happier.

What do I mean exactly by "take control"?

.taking control does NOT mean being macho.

.taking control does NOT mean belting or popping a woman one when she gets out of line.

.taking control does NOT mean emotionally abusing a woman.

.taking control does NOT mean putting a woman down.

.taking control does NOT mean losing your temper, screaming, or yelling.

If you do any of these things, your woman will lose all respect for you.

Instead, you have to take control without losing control over yourself.

Let's take a look at what you need to be a woman's hero in every relationship.

Take a Stand

First, you must stand up for yourself.

Set the rules and boundaries and stick by them.

Don't be afraid to say "no" to a woman.

If she wants the keys to your apartment and you're not ready to give them to her yet, don't be afraid to say "no".

If she wants you to drive across the city to pickup some dry-cleaning and you were planning on visiting your friends, don't be afraid to day "no".

If she wants to go to Japan and you want to go to Costa Rica for vacation, don't be afraid to say "no".

If she wants to buy a new car and you know you can't afford it, don't be afraid to say "no".

Saying "no" is different than whining and complaining. Whining and complaining is saying "no" while at the same time caving into her demands. That makes you look sorry and pathetic. Always act congruently with your words.

Never do something that you know is the wrong thing to do or change your mind just to please a woman. Don't be a pushover to her whims.

Sure, you should always listen to your woman and take into account her opinions and suggestions. But in the end, make your own best decisions and stand up for them. Remain true to yourself and your best judgment.

That doesn't mean you need to win every time. But you do need to take your stand.
