Usually in most cases someone in the relationship is doing the heavy lifting, loving the other person more than the other person love them.
Is their a such thing as equal love in a relationship? Just because someone says or do things for you in the relationship doesn't mean they feel love for doing it.
Sometimes they do it, in hope in getting something in return. So is it for selfish reasons?

I'm sure there are alot of people that are in relationship or married that the love is 50/50 or very close to it but I think that with the majority of couples, there is one that has stronger love than the other. If a person does little favors for their partner in hopes of getting something in return I'd say it's a little selfish and I guess we know which one in this relationship has the stronger love, don't we?

Those are really interesting questions-hmm.

I don't know. No one can ever actually know exactly how much because you can't see how much they REALLY love....
I think sometimes people do things for love and then other times it is for selfish reasons.
Like if a man needed to wash his car but doesn't have time the day he planned to wash it:
If his wife washes it to help him out, then I'd think that'd be for love.
But if she washed it to do something nice so he'll do something nice in return, then that's selfish.
I hate to be a pessimist, but the majority of the time I do think that most things are done for selfish reasons, even if it's just to do it to get appreciated.
If you think about it, does anyone do things for other people just because and not let them know they did it?
People want recognition, which, in it's own way, is a selfish act.

I think that selfish to do something for something in return in that situation. I noticed that it was either me or my boyfriend working harder than the other at the relationship but for awhile now I think we're both pulling our weight and things are great. I guess it just varies..
