_Dear Counselor Daniel,_
_My partner thinks he is always right. He does not accept corrections and suggestions and always makes me feel I'm at fault. This attitude sucks and I want to quit the relationship, what should I do? I still love him though._
*Ama, Tarkwa.*
*Counselor:* Living with someone who thinks he's always right and hence must not be corrected is very frustrating and boring. Such people, knowingly or unknowngly, make you feel inferior or some second-class being.
With such a partner, aside from matters of life and death, allow him to learn the hard lessons of life through experiences. Leave such a partner to learn from his own mistakes. Allow him to fall and rise from his own mistakes. Not everyone has a teachable spirit, some partners are self-righteous, over-confident, complacent and proud. Allow him to go through the pain of fall and rise.
Another thing is, you must also prove yourself as intelligent and prudent decision maker. Your partner might not be accepting your suggestions because maybe oftentimes, your suggestions prove "senseless" and undependable. Learn to make constructive and dependable contributions.
Again, anytime you want to make suggestions to your partner, consider his mood, time of day, venue or location, etc. Don't just suggest anything, anytime, anywhere and expect your partner to take it cool.
Wish you well in your relationship.
Thank you.
