This made more sense to me after reading again. To clarify:

    The bigger narrative around relationships is about "getting". "Getting" married. "Getting" a girl/boyfriend. Etc.

    The more powerful way to enter into an engagement with someone else is to BRING you to the party, and offer yourself, rather than take from others.

This in the sense of the opposite being going to the party with intent to "get" or "take" someone way from that space?

I found this insightful and a neat view.
