Relationship Economics

[redblue22]

In a relationship,

What do want to get from him or her?

What do you have to offer him or her?

.

Nothing

Nothing

I think it's dangerous when you expect something of someone. Like some people think if they have a girlfriend they will be happy that, that person will make them happy..happiness comes from within.

Emotions.

 

[TheGirlOnFire]

Emotions.

Would be pointless if you didn't have them. It would be no relationship

 

[Miss Spaulding]

Emotions.

And handcuffs. Emotions and handcuffs.







Yes. I so went there. You're welcome.

Cool!

 

[Miss Spaulding]

Real post:

I give much more thought to what I can offer them rather than what they can offer me. I don't consider myself a 'catch' in the slightest, which is not healthy thinking, I know, but it makes me put more effort in being the best version of myself that I can be. To be someone who has a lot to offer to their significant other.

O_O

... Didn't ... expect that from Miss Spaulding.

I actually feel like I have a lot to offer but I won't get into that.

In terms of what to get from them... to get to know them, to experience life with them, worship God with them, learn new things with them, to get their input into my life and to allow me input in theirs, to have their love and to give mine...

I'll answer these in reverse, in verse.

What do you have to offer her?
Any riches I have, and stray thoughts
To take action as well, and to care and provide
And if deadly peril arrives, even my life.

And what do want to get from her?
To be loved in return.

Other thoughts: the order in Eph. 5:25 is actually quite daunting:

"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her."

Not sure I answered the question.

Given the mention of handcuffs earlier in the thread, I initially read this as referring to an excess of handcuffs.
