Some complaints are legitimate and founded upon concerns about real threats to personal and communal integrity. Other complaints are NOT legitimate, and NOT founded upon concerns about real threats to personal and communal integrity. The differences between the contrasting complaints are often hidden by collusive-games-of-mutulal-self- deception. The differences can be discerned only by uncovering what is hidden; by seeing-through whatever may be the pretentions of collusive-games-of-mutulal-self- deception. The players of collusive-games-of-mutulal-self- deception will, of course, OBJECT to having their pretentions exposed; and will seek to dominate/control honest people who are seeking to liberate victims of such pretentious games of hide-and-seek between domineering people and lovers. Lovers need in such circumstances to find ways to transcend compulsive tendencies of humans to turn every relationship into a contest over who will be dominant/in-control, & who will be victimized/submissive. Lovers need to demonstrate that all participants in such contests can become winners by transcending the contests; rather than by trying to win over others in the contests. GETTING TO YES can be better than GETTING TO THE TOP of the heap-of-victims. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
