I'm an Apartment manager, and I have this cute older couple, Bill and Joyce that live in my apartments. Bill is this kinda quiet man, keeps to himself but Joyce on the other hand is the complete opposite. She is as sociable as it gets. She is this most bubbly, sweet energizer bunny of a lady. They celebrated their 59th year anniversary. I said to Joyce, wow 59 years!! I asked her, ok Joyce what's the secret?
Without any hesitation, she said with a smile, I give 95% and he gives 5% and then giggles. That's the God honest truth she said. And she is totally content with that effort. And that honestly works for them. She couldn't be Happier she said!!
I've always believed that a great relationship needs to be 50/50. But that just goes to show that, that may not always be the case with every couple. You find what works for both of you. Find the right chemistry that matches both each other. Find what works.
