I think it is very true. A relationship is a lot of give and take and takes a lot of work. A conscience effort to make it work so to speak. Without that no relationship stands a chance.

I think that it follows...if you pick someone that is right for you, you are going to be the right mate for them. 2 halves = a whole.

I believe you'll only get out of a relationship what you're willing to put into it. If only one of you is willing to do all the giving, what chance would you stand at a life together?

mindfful 'theres a lid for every pot'


So which am I, the lid or the pot? laugh



I agree, you get out of a relationship what you put into it. The one-sided ones never work out.

It is very True...Two cant walk togather unless they agree, and if they agree, One must Lead..... You have to walk the same direction, not going away from each other..... But Staying Close to each other, So you can team up on lifes situations..... One must be Trained ... to know and understand the other, and stay by them in Peace..... Yes it takes work, and patients

Thanks for explaining what you meant, Life.

Uh, giving, yes - but in a loving relationship I don't see it as work - it's a pleasure to give to a person you love.

As for highlighted statement, I do not believe it at all - have you ever seen lopsided relationships where a person who puts everything into it gets nothing out of it?

I have. Plenty.

Actually, the wisest of people rarely say anything as they realize that anything worth learning cannot be taught.
