In this day and age, people want equal relationships. We want to be treated fairly and share the responsibilities of our relationships. But an equitable, 50/50 relationship does not mean each partner gives 50% of themselves. In fact, this type of division can be damaging to a relationship.

“you do your part” leads to “unmet expectations” leads to “disappointment” leads to “anger or silence” leads to “distance instead of harmony” leads to “increased pressure to perform”.

There is no such thing as a 50-50 relationship. Love doesn’t take count. One spouse may do more for the other one day then the next day the other spouse may be more.
