A relationship can be like a game of ping-pong or table tennis. It takes two to play the game. The more committed the two players are to the game the better it becomes. Commitment in the game will require regular effort and practice. The game does not become better simply because one likes the game a lot.
If one person talks and gets no feed back. The person feels bad and feels unappreciated. That person is less likely to begin a conversation next time. This is one of the reasons why it is important that men listen to their wives and talk with them on a regular basis. This way feelings will be known and areas of concern or unhappiness can be found out early.
Finding out problem areas early in relationship is like discovering each person's weaknesses in a game. this gives each player areas to work on. Improvement will require practice. This usually costs time and money. To get better both players simply have to put in the time to make their relationships better. It takes two to play the game better.
If only one person is interested in making the game better or making the relationship better, prospects for success becomes reduced. This is because after a while one person will find it difficult to continue to practice with a player who does not like working on his or her game. Similarly, after a while a friend or a partner will get tired of talking to someone who does not listen or who claims to listen but continues to behave the same way over and over again.
It really takes two to play the game better.
