Now. We have fear and rage on the part of the girl, for despite the children she is yet a girl, and a very nice one. However the relationship between her own parents has been destructive. The father has wanted domination, and to some extent has forced his wife into a position of dominance which she strongly resents. Because of this she lashes out at her husband. I am speaking now, you understand, of the parents of Philip’s wife.

Now, the girl respects Philip because he will not be dominated. On the other hand the woman image that she understands, because of her mother, is a dominating woman image. To her she fails as a female if she cannot hold him in line. At the same time her personality is far different than her mother’s, and less focused.

Also she loves Philip, and would not consciously want to dominate him if she could. He senses this subconscious need of hers however to hold him, and resents it vigorously. She attempts to dominate him in her own way, and on a subconscious basis, and it is indeed by appealing to him through helplessness. At the same time she does not want him to give in to her.

She tries to dominate in more feminine ways. Her mother’s domination had more masculine aspects. We will have more to say concerning this, and I hope some helpful comments after our other material.

What he does not understand is the rage that she is containing. There is considerable strength to it, and he should recognize this. She does not want to dominate him through feminine wiles, and yet subconsciously she feels driven to do so.
