I have to be careful as to how much alpha behavior i demonstrate. She has said in the past how laid back i am, the only thing she really didn't like is decision making. I make decisions all day at work(not that she doesn't) and I'm worn out. Even the little things she liked. My off days are during the week and I would have a restaurant picked out for us try. She said she liked when i did that stuff because it showed i thought about us doing stuff together when we were not together, but i was discouraged back then because it seemed like many times she didn't like or disregarded my suggestion.
When I've talked to her on the phone while I'm at work and i have to take a call she can still hear me. She's mentioned how different i sound, authoritative but not overbearing (gee writing this makes it sound obvious what i need to start doing again) but this was when i was on day shift or afternoon shift. She's asleep while I'm at work now so she doesn't hear this side of me anymore.
