The -ERs and the -EEs and the -EDs

Do you ever get the feeling that we are in different relations either the -er or the -ee or the -ed

In one sided love, you are either the “Likee” or the “Liked”

In certain friendships you are either the “caller” or the “Called”

In the same vein you are the “listener” or the “listened”

With certain colleagues your role is that of the “complainee” or the “complained”

You tend towards either being the “give-in-er” or the ” give- in-ed” one

You are sometimes playing the role of  the “waitee” or the “waited”

You either are the one who is “looked” out for or the “looker”

Like the bell shaped curve, relations are either like the green or the blue curve, or the “bell shaped” normally distributed red one

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I guess in the beginning relations are a bit skewed. In many cases sadly , it remains so. The skewness becomes even more pronounced and so ingrained, that a balance may actually throw the whole equation out of gear.Sometimes though, as the relation grows the skewness gets corrected mutually, and the “-ees”, the “-er” and the “-ed” matter no more.
