People keep treating relationships like a corporate hierarchy:
If you earn more, you deserve more submission.
Sir, this is a partnership, not a shareholder meeting.
Money is one form of value, but it isnโt the only currency people bring to a relationship. Character, competence, emotional maturity, loyalty, wisdom, peace, responsibility and contribution all matter.
The real flex isnโt finding someone you can control.
Itโs becoming someone whose character makes mutual respect feel effortless.
