How many people commite equally in a relationship?

I don't believe everything is quantifiable

particularly 'equality' in a commitment


I think most people TRY to commit as equally as possible,,, but I don't think its ever attainable,, complete equality that is,,,

I guess it depends on how many people are in the relationship and what they agree to commit too. Also who they commit to within the relationship, I think that has some bearing too.

As for equally committing between two or more people on any given subject, well, most people innately want the bigger share of whatever it is.

I think when couples make a mutual decision to share an exclusive relationship with each other most, if not all, commit equally...As life happens, circumstances change... If the couple is unable or unwilling to accommodate those changes, they run the risk of compromising the commitment...Once that happens, the commitment can (and often does) become unequal.....

commitment is more importnt

These is exactly my take on this situation. Sometimes when this happens, either one or the other or both cannot or will not make the adjustments necessary to keep the relationship thriving. It may be no one's fault, just life happening and changing things, and not necessarily something which was deliberate. The thing both persons in the relationship should do, is communicate their feelings to each other and at least give the relationship a chance to succeed and begin to thrive again. Unfortunately, there is not always a happy ending to this scenario. The only thing each of us can do individually is endeavor to give our best, whatever that may be. JMHO

So really that's just a lack of commitment (almost wrote equipment.. Lol) no complex here..well not when I'm home anyway.
Maybe that's part of it if one separated for instance.So a lack of commitment takes the exclusiveness out of the equation and if you don't have exclusiveness then monagamy can't happen...and they are
different.

yes klc 60/40-40/60 a little give and take
with assertive communication skills on both sides. Is a must.

I believe that when two people begin a relationship the newness is fun.....its exciting....and it is addicting. People are so giddy with this newness that they say words that they may not necessarily mean. They jump right in to the relationship and believe that they are happy....and therefor they commit to one another. However, the newness wears off over time (could be a few months or maybe longer) but the newness will wear off. And that is when those two people truly find out about one another. Is this what THEY truly want? Do the two of them truly want to be together?

I am not saying that every person is this way. However, I have witnessed a ton of relationships that begin with two people "so happy and in love with one another" that I know a great majority of people do act this way? After the newness wears off then people begin to wonder if the grass is truly greener.....they wonder if they are missing out on another person who could be better for them.

Anyways....just an opinion.

I think not all commit equally in a relationship once one commit they are oblige to stand on what is committed to. Most of those in a relationship are afraid of obligation. (just an opinion) ^-^

To say if it was equal would mean keeping score. If you want a relationship to last it shouldn't be about keeping track.

I guess it would depend on how many people were in the relationship. Duuuuh

Hey everyone im a newbie here.... :-)
