A healthy relationship is a give-and-take dynamic where both individuals contribute strengths, skills, and energy to create balance. That being said, the assessment of what is being contributed is more of an ongoing conversation in today's world. Even with new relationships, the quality of what you have (and the expectations that follow) can be a "winner winner chicken dinner" or a major deal-breaker. So, what are yo...
