Do relationships work better when the man likes the woman more, or when the woman likes the man more?

From what I’ve seen, there’s usually one person who loves the other a little more, even in relationships that work well. It’s a bit of an uncomfortable topic, but which dynamic do you think actually works better (or has worked better for you)?

Some people say when the man likes the woman more, she gets treated really well but may be more prone to cheating. Others say when the woman likes the man more, the man feels appreciated and grateful, though sometimes he can grow complacent.

Curious what people think. The obvious answer would be a balance but in the case where balance is absent which way do you think tends to work better?

31F and anytime there is a shift in the consistency of communication, I assume they’re not interested. That’ll mean either I’ll make sure it’s a slow fade or just stop replying since it’ll be inevitable at one point. This person was one of the first in a while to talk about gaming on a similar level, not sure why the lack of replies? The conversation wasn’t going on long in the first place but the similar interest seemed slightly promising. I get it hasn’t been a full day yet but the change in response time doesn’t give a good feeling. I might sound neurotic but it’s a gut feeling, I’m not going to beat a dead horse. What went wrong? I’m purple and he’s grey, considering he’s 40M, I’d expect more maturity but clearly not always the case.
