I've heard people say that it's 50/50 percent from each person in a relationship.
Example:You give someone a gift and you give them half of that gift.Then you tell them that they have to prove that they deserve it and you'll give them the other half of said gift.
I haven't heard of anyone telling his or her sweetheart to earn the other half of a gift.
I have heard "Relationships are 50/50," meaning that eat person contributes equally, but I believe a better way to look at it is that each person gives 100% of himself or herself. I don't understand the example you gave, though.

I believe that it's 100% on both sides.
That's not even 50/50. I have to admit, that's one even I haven't heard of. It's not a gift if there are conditions placed on receiving it. Sounds more like something my dad would tell me to get me to raise my grades.
I believe in compromise, but I really don't think all people put forth the same efforts in the same way. 100%, to me, means being faithful and accommodating, but there are some things I just won't give up or compromise on. That number is not unconditional either. I don't mean in the way of gifts, but in the way of value for one another. It can go down or up, depending on the amount of respect and value one has for the other as their partner.
The reason for using the word 'gift' as an example is that to me when a man gives me all of his love I consider it a gift.
When you really and truly love someone you give them all your love not just half of it.That's why I believe it's 100% of yourself in a relationship.

I am 100%. I give and love unconditionally and don't expect anything in return. But this is a relationship we're talking here. In a single person's scenario, I would be taking all the time.
It's 100%/100% each person giving whatever they have to help the relationship survive and be healthy. And with the 100/100 model, there's not all that petty, tacky score keeping on the other partner. If you're too caught up in how much your getting back for what you're giving, it might not be love. It might just be an arrangement of convenience or business.
