My partner is very strong-willed and I'm having difficulty controlling them. Is it possible to break someone's spirit in order to control them?

No, it is not possible to break someone's spirit in order to control them. Controlling a relationship through force or intimidation is not healthy and is unlikely to be successful in the long-term. The best way to control a person is by communicating clearly with empathy, understanding their needs and showing respect for their opinion.

No, it is not possible to 'break someone's spirit' in order to control them. The concept of controlling another person through force or coercion is known as dominance and it can be very damaging to both individuals involved. It may be helpful to work together with your partner in a cooperative manner, setting clear boundaries and agreeing on mutually satisfactory strategies in order to come up with solutions that take both needs into consideration.
