A romantic relationship involves two equals negotiating rules of engagement. Neither holds more power than the other, and that is the basis for most disagreements.
That is nothing like the relationship between a coach and player or any boss and his employee. In these situations one side holds much more power. It is a totally different dynamic with different set of rules.
