“The superior woman understands the transitory in the light of eternity.”
You are in a Subordinate role, which causes you discomfort. Accept it for now. Focus on the long-range benefits of the relationship. This will see you through.

You are in an unequal relationship, and you are not the one “on top.” This bothers you. Buck up. This is the Future of Conduct.
The Book of Changes says: Do not let annoyance at one aspect of the whole draw you out of an otherwise positive relationship. Look at this transitory situation in the light of the long-term benefits.
Example: You have a boss who’s a moron, and it really galls you to have to take orders from this idiot. The Yi advises you not to quit your job just yet.
As R.L. Wing advises: The time when you are forced to Subordinate yourself is best spent in thought of the future.
