Tug-of-war

In order for a relationship to work or blossom, both parties have to play a game of tug-of-war - when one gives, the other receives and vice versa. However, when only one party keeps on giving, high possibility it will not work or even spark off.

It is a very tiring process when one gives in way too much in trying to make something work. But if taking is all the other does, then it's not fair. Not fair to the giver.

People tend to give too generously when they spot something that might be worth trying; a relationship worth fighting for. But it gets very demoralising and depressing when the light at the end of the tunnel gets dimmer by the day - without any warning.
