Or are you well balaced enough to be both?My recent brek-up has made me look at my past relationships, and reflect on what happened in my last one.Today I realized that in this last one I was the giver .and when I thought about it ,I realized that by being in the role,I was actually keeping a certain amount of intimacy at bay.it was a dismal sort of Eureka moment.
others ,what have you been,what did you realize about it?Learn from it?

I think I'm both. I sometimes give and sometimes receive. I believe that in every relationship, each individual must learn how to give and take.

With my ex-boyfriend I was always the giver. I am a very thoughtful person but my relationship with that guy made me feel that he wasn't treating me the way I should be treated. No regrets however..I learned a lot from that relationship.
Now in my present relationship, I tend to be more of the taker but I'm trying to balance it out. I make sure that my present boyfriend doesn't feel that I'm always the taker in the relationship..After all, a relationship should be give and take for it to work.
Hope this helps = )
