Yes that does happen, but if the high status person is happy in the relationship, and want to remain in the relationship, then they need to make allowances. Also I think it really depends on what the high status aspect is, because in some things one person may be higher than the other, yet in other aspects the other individual is the high status person, so it needs to be looked at as a balance mechanism. The scales are never going to be in equilibrium.

Yes, this is the case and, it is going to swing like a pendulum depending on so many factors. What I do believe though, is if one is too heavily reliant on the other, it can end up in a bad situation.
