*at this point
stands up to applaud for brenners* 
it just struck me ... the whole relationship saying that is "50/50" ... isn't it interesting that, that is the present divorce rate statistic ... hmmm. i too believe that it is not 50/50, but rather 100/100 ... but going a bit deeper; wouldn't it be better to look at it as 100% of whatever my commitment is, meaning ... i'll take care of my 100% with God, and let my husband/wife take care of their 100% with God ... instead of me worrying about their 100%
now THIS is a servant's heart ... which is the heart that Jesus both demonstrated and called for us to be.
keep up the good work brenners
If you want that "traditional" kind of guy, become a "traditional" kind of girl.
Whoever said a relationship is 50/50 was a fool. A relationship is a partnership - each brings something to the table (ideas, opinions, likes, dislikes etc..) IT'S 100/100 folks! And beyond that there are roles that fall to typically female or typically male...embrace them. It doesn't make you a doormat or a slave to let your man be the "head of the house". Someone has to be in charge and make a final decision and that is his God-given role.

Do you set up the coffee to be ready for him in the morning? Fix a lunch?
