I would say there's no way to quantify the evenness.
And sometimes degrees of lust and neediness obscure the qualitative nature of the caring, but there's plenty of mostly balanced couples out there.
I mean it in the same way as there's no one way in which people feel happiness, or in that 2 people can be sad about something, yet each can be more sad than the other one at seperate times...
I'm not saying that 2 people can't care a lot for each other. Just that it's impossible for that care to be even...
Example: if one person stubs their toe, in that moment, their focus of attention is towards their immediate pain. On the other hand, the other person might feel compassion towards their partner and make it their primary concern (or laugh but, for the sake of what I'm saying, let's say they're concerned)....
I'm just saying that it's impossible for absolute equilibrium to be present when it comes to feelings, no matter which 2 people you're talking about.
(and, as an aside, when teh hell did Jeremy Sisto get on Prison Break? I should've been made aware of this long before now...)
