I was chatting with a friend about how we both manage our urban gardens, and it got me thinking about partnerships in general. In marriage, we often hear it described as a partnership, but I’ve noticed that one person frequently carries the emotional load remembering birthdays, planning family time, or just checking in when things get stressful. It feels a bit like editing audio tracks where one person handles all the fine-tuning while the other just adds the main vocals. Has anyone else experienced this imbalance? How do you and your partner work to share that emotional effort more equally, or is it something that just naturally falls into certain roles over time?
