Newton's Third Law

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs - equal and opposite action-reaction force pairs.

The same can be said for relationships, when the forces of one are wrong, the polarity changes and as once two magnets attracted, they now push away.

NOW I GET IT, just too late.

My husband used to say that to our children all the time.
