Sometimes blocking the process is the best way to do. Blocking gives leverage and allows to fix long-standing inbalances.

Imagine that you have been slaving for low salary with abusive boss, who constantly promises but never delivers. If shit hit the fan and you are desperately needed, this is the perfect time to talk and solidify improvements. Game does not run on gratitude.

The same rule unfortunately also applies to relationships.
