Are You the Garden or the Gardener?
Or are you open for both?
In healthy relationships, it is important to be able to do both. Relationships and partners need tending, nurturing and care. Sometimes they need to be fed and other times, just enjoyed.
Tending and nurturing are necessary for both partners. Giving without receiving is empty, frustrating and demoralizing.
Some find ways to always be in charge of the gardening and have a hard time just being the garden.
Some believe that the gardener is there just to care for them.
