Couples can share an electric blanket. They just can't share the controls. Love is a unique expression that emanates from each individual in very different ways. So the statement "Love Is An Electric Blanket With Someone Else At The Controls Is More True Than Most People Realise" proves its merit. How each individual loves another is very similar to the controls of the electric blanket. Those controls were preset by a manufacturer long before the couple began to share the electric blanket. Each individual in a couple are preset with basic hereditary and breeding patterns that are not always reversible. One may be a warm and effusive person. The other may be introverted, shy and less able to communicate. Unfortunately, this is not always the most prominent issue in the minds of most couples inlove. Would that it were, the rate of divorce might not be so high. Different As Night And Day: The old saw that opposites attract is a half-truth. The other half of the truth is that similar personalities also can be attracted to each other. There is comfort in this. With personalities in direct opposition to each other, the work of overcoming the differences is a labor of love, or should be. One basic difference is also the most obvious: gender. Sensitivities in men and women are vastly different. Men, since the dawn of time, have been programmed to lead. The process of evolution has changed that as time has shown to the point where women are also able to lead effectively, although from a different sensitivity. Thus, control can become a sticking point even in the most loving relationships. The significance of control depends on the perception of each individual. Control can also be the line in the sand that manages to disrupt the unity between two people. "Someone Else At the Controls": The less extroverted personality usually doesn't place as much importance on maintaining control in a relationship. This is the person who prefers to follow rather than lead. In this situation, the electric blanket control isn't an issue. For the more assertive personality, who controls the electric blanket may result in insignificant competition for first place at the control. Eventually, it may be more than competition for control of the electric blanket. The Subject Of Electric Blankets: Electric blankets make wonderful gifts for bridal showers, birthdays and anniversaries. Buyers can find electric blankets online where there are wide ranges of colors and sizes. Rarely does a couple argue over the purchase of an electric blanket. They are morely likely to argue over who will take control of it once it is in use. Perhaps, the simplicity of the resolution to this dilemma is to keep the word "share" at the forefront of the mind when an electric blanket is in use or the control becomes an issue. After all, compromise is as important to the electric blanket control as effecting mutual comfort.
