Sometimes if there is a mild difference of opinion, if I was with the right one for me, then it should be easily resolved for the most part. It's how we'd work together to work things through.

But if there are BIG differences, ones that would require me to change who I am, just to please the other person, then I feel that would be my queue to move on and find someone else. I am not going to change who I am and the person I'm with should not change who they are because if a couple is meant for each other then it should fall into place naturally without compromising everything!

Hugz_n_Kissez: I think it's still compromise...but for the good of the relationship....and something that is not one sided but is a win-win for both...that's how I see compromise anyway!!!!!!!!!Both partners walk away happy with a solution to the problem.....




I always look for win/win in about any situation...when it's possible. Life's too short to have others pissed at ya....... well, except for Dude. laugh

crotalus_p: Do elaborate my dear


The first part:
If you don't care what you have for dinner, letting the other person order for you (have known guys that liked to look like Mr. big or something by ordering my food) instead of doing it yourself, no big LOL

Second part:
By in a personal relationship, I meant as far as how you would interact with someone close enough to be your significant other. Stepping out of that fairly isolated zone things get different.

Best analogy I can think of would be that if my honey wanted to get looped on his Birthday, here at home with family and friends, ok, I would probably put up with his stupid self and let him go for it. But, drunk driving on public roads, no compromise.

I made this decision in my last relationship to end it as we had a huge difference of values/morals ....... we ended up on polar ends of the spectrum and there was no room for compromise and it made me realize that I didn't want this person in my life because as he told me himself "he was selfish". It made me realize how much I did not mean to him.

langleygirl: I agree that "compromise" is not a bad thing ..... its a necessity and doable for the most part ....... just depends on the issues/reasoning behind it.
