What does 50/50 look like for you?

article image placeholderUploaded by @MsColes77
Now, for some relationships, 50 50 means one person takes care of providing for the household and the other person takes care of providing everything within the household. So in families where there is one income and the husband is the one out making all the money, while the mom is at home taking care of the kids taking care of the house, they see that as 50 50 because all of it works together as one

I just got home. Well, I got home from work, and then I stopped by the grocery store. Actually went to BJ's warehouse, which, if y'all don't know what that is, it's like a Costco or Sam's club, big warehouse club, and actually stopped there to get my tires checked because I felt like my car was a little wobbly in the rain. And then while I was there, I said, well, let me grab something for dinner

@DearAuntyAng

We can come to a decision together. I didn't feel protected in that moment. I felt very vulnerable. And so I totally get where you're coming from there. I do. I totally get where you're coming from there. And, yes, it all falls on you, and it is a very lonely and isolating feeling when it all falls on you. So thank you so much for sharing this

So I'm learning each and every day about what I need to do to be better in my own marriage. It's hard. It's hard. Especially when that person keeps racking up wrongs. But it's hard. But I guess what I'm saying is that I love the subject matter today that you spoke about because what is 50 50? You give your half, I give my half

But if tomorrow he's the one who's sick or can't do anything, maybe I can give 80% or 100% depending on how sick he is so we can get to that 100%. So to me 50 50 is overall over the years, over our entire lives. It means being there for each other. It means completely not just monetarily but helping in the household, mentally, morally, just being there when the other person can

If you talk to people have been married 50, 60, 40, 50 years, they'll tell you they don't know what 50 50 is. They just do what they need to do for their spouse, and their spouse does the same for them. So thanks for this. This was a good one

Hey, I really do like this subject because I'm going to tell you, I kind of look at marriage, especially if you're married a little bit different now, if you're just dating and maybe you're cohabiting, maybe things are on different level or that. But I will tell people, I feel that when you're married, that your income is one. And so I think you should have one bank account. I think everybody's money should go into that

relationships are a delicate dance that require consistant, constant, communication

You 50 50. I don't think it's ever actually half and half. I think it depends on the agreement that you make with your partner, and it ebbs and flows in terms of, like, how much a person is taking on how much, quote unquote slack, someone else has to pick up. It's a delicate balance. It's a delicate dance, or it doesn't have to be delicate
