~ 80% - 20% ~

I Often hear about this whole 80% to 20% idea when it comes to relationships and i always here different definitions of what it really means. I stumbled upon this "Rule" earlier...

"The Rule:

In our relationships, our partner is most likely only able to offer 80% of what we need. There are times when we will find someone who fills in the holes, offering the other 20%…and because it’s been missing for so long, you think you’ve finally found what you truly need. But be careful taking risks of cheating, or leaving your 80%…because what you will be left with, is that 20%. Obviously this is no where near as fulfilling as being with someone who offers 80%"

I see it like this, when in a relationship you will always try and give the person you love 100% of you, 100% effort and 100% love. But obviously it's really difficult to give that 100% so you try as hard as you could and you give that person 80% of everything you have, which is still an extremely high number. But because you lack that 20%, a person who expects 100% and only wants 100% will look elsewhere for that remaining 20% to help fill that void.

This causes them to lose sight of how great every 1% of that 80% really is. The sad thing is, most people only start to really see that 80% when it's gone, leaving them with 0%.

My Breakdown
No one in this world can be 100%. ( No one in this world is perfect )
But if we score a high 80-90%, appreciate that. ( Appreciate that we go above and beyond to try and be that 100% no matter what it takes }
Don't worry about the 20% if the 80% is almost perfect ( Cheating or being shady to obtain that 20% will in time cause you to lose that 80% of something so good )

**Ask yourself if the list of things missing is longer than the list of what’s there.**
