Relationships Are NOT 50/50. Stop Keeping Score.

If you’re measuring how much you give against how much someone else isn’t, you’re missing the point. Real relationships don’t work that way.
Here’s why:
🔹 You don’t know what the other person is carrying.Assumptions? Dangerous. You might think someone isn’t pulling their weight, but in reality, they’re fighting battles you can’t see.
🔹 Not all effort is visible.Sometimes, people are laying a foundation that will benefit you both—but you won’t see it immediately. Like in The Quantum Leap Strategy by Dr. Price Pritchett, unseen forces are always at play.
🔹 Growth isn’t about “How”—it’s about “Who.”Too many people get stuck trying to figure out how to do everything themselves when they should be asking who can help. Who Not How by Dan Sullivan makes this clear: your biggest breakthroughs come from partnerships, not solo efforts.
That’s why trust in relationships should be like playing Spades or Bridge.You don’t second-guess your partner. You trust they have the cards they say they do.
💡 And here’s the best relationship advice I’ve ever heard:A 90-something-year-old couple once told me—❝ Relationships aren’t 50/50. They’re 100/100. ❞Give everything you can. And when you can’t? The right person bridges the gap.
🚨 The danger? Trying to do it all alone.If you refuse to delegate, share responsibilities, or lean on others, you’re not just isolating yourself—you’re stunting your growth.Because you’re either growing, or you’re dying.
I choose to give. I choose to grow with the givers.And I demand what’s mine with the same confidence as the takers.
What about you? Do you believe in 50/50, or something greater? Drop your thoughts below. ⬇️
