Two people can't be together, love, communicate, and care for each other without occasionally suffering for each other, but if you listen to Twitter, you'd think none of that happens.
You'd think any sign of inconvenience spells the end of a relationship. Many will fall for it

When you are dating, sacrificing for your partner seems like a small deal.
"Is it not just my time? Just an appointment. It's nothing"
After marriage, reality sets in, and sacrificing becomes reality, not theory. Many times, it becomes a lifestyle

You give up getting that shoe because your partner has a need.
You eat a new diet you don't like to support your partner, most cases, a condition that requires a change of diet
Picking up extra shifts at the hospital for your family is sacrifice. It happens almost everyday

The thing is this; it takes two to tango
Sometimes, one partner takes advantage of the other person's sacrifice and does not make any. That's where the problem starts.
It does not even have to be equal (50;50) in reality, It almost never is if I'm being honest

It is each partner giving 100%,
If you have the 50/50 mentality, you might be tempted to keep count which might spell trouble for your relationship or marriage
Seeing your partner sacrifice when the opportunity presents itself is what motivates you to do more

I'm not saying be a doormat for your partner
I'm not saying put yourself on fire so that the other person stays warm

Let them understand how it is beginning to affect you, we are not infinite beings and everybody has a limit.

The truth is this, sometimes, we are selfish to some degree, we struggle with it
There are times that sacrificing does not come easy at all, even for the smallest things
If you are unwilling to sacrifice anything at all, then maybe you are not yet ready to be someone’s partner.
