What should reasonably be expected in a relationship?
Person-A and Person-B are in a relationship. They golf together, ride bikes together, have dinner together, hike together, etc. Person-A complains that they want Person-B to golf 18 rounds instead of 9; they want Person-B to rock climb in addition to hiking; they want Person-B to get a lighter, speedier bike so they can do long tours; they want Person-B to do more of a variety of things in bed; Person-A has a cat and Person-B is fine with that but Person-A wants Person-B to pay attention to the cat vs ignoring it; etc.
Person-B thinks the status quo is a pretty darned good deal for Person-A; that they have much more in common than Person-A would be able to find with other people.
