The **OTHER** 80/20 rule
Ok...so most of us have seen 'Why Did I Get Married" and the one thing I have heard in some discussions post movie is about the 80/20 rule....
so...is there any truth to it?
I kinda see it like this:
Some of us have a 100% idea of what we want from someone.
We may mostly meet people who can give us 50% and we have to decide if we wanna work with that.
If we are blessed we find someone who has 80% of what we are looking for...we get with that and stay.
However....if something happens and we break up(especially if it's our <'our' being used to mean anyone!!>fault!)....the next person(s) that come along will only be worth 20% of what we had...because it's damn near hard to find someone right off the bat that will be close to what we just lost.
Agree or disagree?
Speaking for myself personally, I remember a relationship that I was in years back where I was getting my 80% and after it ended...I just went thru this drought and saying to myself...if I could take the intelligence from person A and the funniness from person B, the drive of person C and so on...and mix them all up....I would have my last gf....LOL
Is it possible to take a 20% and build them up to at least a 70%?
