FEAR of losing power

Men rarely admit it, but power isn't just control over a situation. It's their way of feeling needed.
When he loses power, he loses himself.
Especially with a woman who sees right through him. She can smile, and everything falls apart.
She doesn't argue, she doesn't attack. She simply knows how deeply vulnerable he is.
And in that moment, he feels fear—not of her, but of himself.
Because power doesn't disappear from the outside; it melts from within, when someone appears who can disarm with a single glance.
And here's the paradox: it's precisely this loss of power that makes a man alive. Because only then does he truly feel.
