So what does "It takes two to tango" means?
Honestly, the first time I heard about it, my initial expression was "Huh?!" Of course, I know the meaning of this sentence. Literally. I know that it takes a couple to dance a tango... but what does this idiom exactly means? Admittedly, it took me years before I fully understood these words.
When someone said "It takes two to tango", they mean "Certain activities - such as quarreling or fighting - cannot be performed alone. "It takes two to tango" means that two people in a fight are both responsible for that fight. One person might start the fight, but they both keep it going. A conflict is not the fault of just one person or the other; they are often both to blame, because it takes two to tango ;D
So, may I ask you "Do you keep on blaming others, too?"
