Not to pick on you or Lo, but you both bring up a similar point, and I have to ask... if you find you're leaving boot prints on people and considering them doormats who's really the person with the issue in the relationship? Just because you can walk all over someone, why would you want to in the first place, and what are you doing that puts the other person in the position of being walked on? I've known many (and dated several) women that like to constantly "test" their partners by pushing their buttons, purposely making them jealous, putting them in the position of having to fight for their affections, etc etc. Who's the passive aggressive one? My tolerance for that kind of thing is exactly nil.
