it is a personality trait......some are just domineering and like to take control of everything around them. they have gotten away with it when they were children and as adults learn to master it.

a person with a weaker character or personality does not have a chance but can learn to develop self confidence or else get to a point that they get so angry they fight back because they have had enough.
people are complicated, aren't they.....lol
