We show up, help out, and tell ourselves it’s no big deal. But over time, those little mental notes become a running tally of everything we’ve done—and everything the other person hasn’t. Suddenly, an argument about the dishes is really about years of feeling unappreciated or unseen. In this episode of Right Here, hosts Christopher Mooney, LCSW and Kenyon Phillips, LMSW explore keeping score in relationships—why we do it, how resentment builds, and how unspoken expectations become silent contracts.  They also unpack the difference between fairness and equality. Healthy relationships aren’t always fifty-fifty. Sometimes one person carries more. The problem is when that imbalance becomes permanent, invisible, and never discussed. The conversation also looks at why we give more than we can comfortably offer, hope others will notice, and eventually resent them when they don’t. Chris and Kenyon offer practical ways to recognize the needs beneath resentment, communicate them clearly, and distinguish generosity from obligation. Because the goal isn’t to prove who has done more. It’s to build relationships where neither person needs to keep receipts.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hrVb9XtgefYFYiDTiu-pm9zJDTjA00WD5IX1-PS6I74/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83Y2Uz/ODI4YWYwYTNlYjYz/MTgwYjU0ZmJjNGJi/YmRiZC5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
