Keeping score will drive you insane. Don’t do it. If you start counting the nights (or dollars) spent together, the sexual acts engaged in, the hours on the phone or anything else of value, to compare it with what you’re getting, believe us when we say that no good can come of this. You may be somewhat reassured if you come out ahead, but all keeping score will do is make your partners and their partners crazy and bitter without meeting the needs you’re trying to get met.
