If we look in the dictionary, the meaning of demanding is that they are not easily satisfied; that they always want the best; that they are hardly content. So we can understand how the demanding person is most often seen, in short, a "rigid" and "boring" person, difficult to please and complicated to live with.

But we shouldn't look at the demanding person with these qualifications, because often these people are only looking for the best for themselves and for others, they believe that you have to be demanding in order to get positive results.

Here are some examples:

(Positive points from demanding people)

• At work: the person who is in a management position in a company  is expected to deliver satisfactory results, so they need to be demanding of their subordinates in order to achieve success, so everyone wins.
• In a relationship: the person is in a solid relationship and finds themselves confronted by their partner, not receiving attention, respect, love, so they start demanding and end up becoming "annoying". The best thing to do is to establish respect and attention, but if that's not possible, the best thing to do is to get out of the relationship, because when you don't have respect for the other person, there's no point in imposing.
• In friendship: the demanding person tends to want to spend more time with their friends and comes to their defense when necessary.

(Negative points of demanding people)

• At work: the person in charge of a company who doesn't tolerate mistakes and easily finds fault with everything. They don't know how to delegate tasks and tend to be authoritarian.
• In the relationship: the person tends to make demands all the time, making it tiring to live with them, they want to be in charge of everything and demand that their partner does things their way, and can even break up the relationship if they don't agree.
• In friendships: the person tends to demand too much of their friends, demanding that they be the priority in the friendship, always believing that they are right, tiring their friends out and they may even move away.

Demands can be both positive and negative, it's the behavior that indicates the degree to which a person is demanding, it's necessary to establish a level of balance so that relationships can progress healthily. If you find yourself at a high level of demand, where nothing is the way you want it, you need to take care of yourself by seeking help from a professional to help you have a certain control over your demands and not demand so much from yourself or from others, so that your life is lighter.

Take care of yourself.
