You need to play to your strengths as a couple. Sharing is really awesome when you're messing around with Play-Doh in kindergarten. It's less awesome when you're adults and one of you is good at something and the other person sucks at it. So just let the more skilled person take the reins. Peter Scott
About This Quote

This quote is a perfect example of the problem with most relationship advice. It's true that most couples don't play well together. But we can't always blame our partners for how we play, and we can't always change who we are so we become good at something. We all have different strengths and weaknesses, and if we let our partners dictate the way we play together, we aren't going to be very happy.
