Dealing with steady styles
Steady Styles may appear submissive, hesitant, wishy-washy, or even apologetic. You may need to draw them out. They just wish this whole problem would go away. Steady Styles will be made most comfortable if you:
- Make them feel they’re personally “okay”;
- Promise that the crisis will soon ebb;
- Guarantee the process will be relaxed and pleasant;
- Show you’re committed to working with them to iron out the problem and save the relationship.
Remember, Steady Styles get just as upset as Dominant Styles; they just express it in a much more low-key way. And they’ll quietly go elsewhere if their needs aren’t met.
