Why do you think it is more important to give than to receive in relationships?

[xJeremyx]

[NathanDavis]

I'm a giver... that makes me happy

giving makes me happier in relationships, as simple as that...

and then yes, of course... they give back in return as much, sometimes more


so, it is about reciprocation... and when you have people that are givers in a relationship, that reciprocation is much more present and it is also genuine... and that's a great thing to have when you really want to be happy with someone else in your life


now, if you're a giver paired with someone that only ones to take, I do imagine that sooner or later it will not end that well

[Guy13]

Both have value and should occur as it is sign of healthy relationship and balance people.

[midnightmoon05]

To give moderately for the one who needs is to love.
to give too much is selfish given

to give because it makes one happy (not because the receiver want/needs it) is selfish given.

to receive gratefully is love.

both partner should give with love and receive with love.

it will never be 50/50 or 100/100.
anything we do, do it with love and with moderation. Then we have peace, kindness and love truly from the heart.

[SaraMarie1288]

I feel that it is equally important to give and receive in a relationship. You want to make sure you both are doing what you can to make each other happy and make them feel special in every way. Not just because you should but also more that you you want them to be happy and satisfied.

[FilmGuy93]

Because it's a statement about how much you want to express your affection for your partner. Seeing my girlfriend happy makes me happy, and it makes her more interested in contribution further to my happiness.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

It's better to give than receive. In giving you show mercy and kindness, while receiving doesn't have any virtue in it.

[Darine123]

So you know that you’re already put 100% to them so when you break up with him you’re not going to regret about it that he lose the real one

[xJeremyx]

But that isn't the point of giving 100%... You give because you love your partner, no?

[Darine123]

@xJeremyx if you put 100% to someone it already mean you love them. And I maybe give him that much so I won’t regret when he left me or cheated on me w another girls

[xJeremyx]

Giving your 100% should not be done just in a way you like... Giving to your partner with consideration towards his/her desires is the better way to go. It shows you are attentive, i guess.

[xJeremyx]

And yet, you also have to care for yourself. You can't care for your partner if you are burnt out.

[TheSpaceGnome]

There isn't a difference.

If both give, then both are receiving.

[18Uma21]

Receiving is more important than giving. I wish everyone was good at receiving

[xJeremyx]

What makes you think so?

[BigschlongEnergy]

@xJeremyx the human brain human brain is hardwired to be selfish just take babies for instance they cry and whine they don’t give a shit that your trying to sleep and the selfishness Grows into every person into there personality

You can’t win an argument With anybody because there Gonna be Self centered and calling them names Won’t make them see you as good they will see you as piece of shit and nobody does things unless it benefits them. Some will give to the homeless because they feel if they don’t it will make them a bad person And they will feel bad Which makes it them doing it so they don’t Feel a certain way a obligation if you do something to try to not feel a certain way that in itself is selfish. If I refuse to buy you food Because I don’t have much money that makes me selfish if I buy you food because I feel bad and don’t want to be responsible for You going hungry that makes me obligated and if I wasn’t obligated It wouldn’t be a self serving act.

[18Uma21]

@BigschlongEnergy writing a huge paragraph as a response is also very selfish. I'm sorry but I'm not reading that all

[BigschlongEnergy]

@18Uma21 I wasn’t Talking to you when I wrote that and you know that Dumbass.

[xJeremyx]

@BigschlongEnergy Quit it. Not worth getting upset about.

[BigschlongEnergy]

@xJeremyx BRUH

[xJeremyx]

I mean, I can see where you are coming from in that paragraph... But if she does not want to accept it, so be it. Just be peaceful, yknow

[BigschlongEnergy]

A wise man ounce said BRUH and a fool didn’t get the message and life went on.

[18Uma21]

I like to look at things from an opposite point of view. Life is more interesting that way

[BJP21]

As much as I like receiving, Im a giver and dont expect anything in return.

[wittymilf]

Herpes

[Luopio27]

Shows more love.

[In_Trance]

Balance of both
