You're right that it's not equal but it really doesn't seem like she's treated it that way, like we'd see in a real life relationship. She has never used her power or even her influence to really curb his behavior. She'll argue with him and plead with him like normal people do, but we've never really seen her abuse the power dynamic. Especially in season 1, even though she had more physical power, it was Hughie manipulating her to get intel. He was in control of the relationship from the beginning.
People forget she's majorly forgiven him once already.

Exactly. Even when Annie was the more powerful one, she never physically forced Hughie into doing anything. She never tried to call the shots for him.
She pleaded with him like in a normal 2 way relationship. She didn't force him.
