Chapter 6 Q2

          For a relationship to be successful I believe that there needs to be an equal amount of give and take. Both people in the relationship have to be able to realize that sometimes things can't always go your way and you will have to work and collaborate with each other for it work out. When either one of the people in the relationship feel like they are not getting the equal amount of give and take then thats when it becomes an unbalanced relationship. One person has more power over the other and controls or makes most of the decisions that happen. When you are in an unbalanced relationship you feel like very unappreciated and the other person is taking advantage of you. It will start to seem like what you want or how you feel is not valid enough for the other person to care about. Having more power over the relationship may feel good at first, but after a while of treating the other person not as an equal will cause the relationship to go down and you will feel like the difference.

          I believe that sometimes it does happen where there is an unbalance in a relationship, but the most important part of of creating a truly meaningful and successful relationship is being able to identify the unbalance and fix it before it is too late.
