How much do you compromise?

Whenever i go into any relationship i always prepare myself for any setbacks. I agree with what you stated that there has to be a give and take when you love somebody. But then there are relationships that you can say "one way" wherein if you love somebody, you do not expect something in return. this is kind of sad if you are the only person who exerts effort for your relationship to work out. yes, you both love each other but then only one person is trying hard to work things out for the both of you. If you will be in any relationship, unless you still haven't decided to tie the know, do not give your 100% because in the end if it turns out you are not meant to be with each other, you will feel devastated. Bottomline, just love and feel loved. Enjoy the moments when you are still together.

Compromise is really very important every time. When you and our partner are working out for a relationship, then its really important to compromise. We also should know how to compromise cause its also for your own good.

I always try to balance things out, specially with my boyfriend. He is an incredible guy, and would never hurt me, and I'm sure he would willingly give up his stand for me, that's why I always need to check if I am too needy already, or if I am too pushy and I need to take it back a little bit. It's like a voluntary comprise because I know my boyfriend would never say anything about me being unfair or something,

relationship is very abstract,which we can't measure with accurate numbers.therefore ,we are unable to caculate how much we give or how much we should take in return .all we do is adictated by our hearts.what do you say ?

when you are into a relationship you must be prepared to compromise. we all have our differences and we carry them with us when we enter into a relationship. we know however that we cannot enforce our will into others but we can do something with our self. well, it would be better if the other has the same thinking. but if you love and care the other person then you must be willing to compromise. sound judgment should tell you when and how much you would compromise. compromising is a means of looking for a win-win solution to make the relationship smooth sailing.

in india we do alot of compromise that is why marriage last for long ,in western world they do not compromise and go for next marriage ,for them marriage means play of body not sentiments.

We are always making compromise in a relations and I must admit that since the last five years I have made a lot of compromises to make our relationship strong like never before and actually even my boyfriend makes a lot of compromise and we are both conscious about it and we even told each other that this is important to be together and have a healthy relationship.

Life seems to be filled with challenges and trials. Compromise is a way of getting through it. We tell ourselves that we won't be put in a position to have to compromise. Unfortunately, we can not choose what life throws our way. Compromise is inevitable. i feel i compromise on some issue every day.

I'm always on a compromise especially when giving up decisions just to do away from things that would result to an unhealthy confrontation. I'm willing to compromise always especially over wife and children...

It depends................

i'm in a relationship where the word "compromise" barely exist. when these issues starts popping up and becomes an argument it's, most of the time, me doing all the thinking and understanding... i have a very spoiled girlfriend. they say that men are the ones who should do most of the understanding thingy. women have all the right to be spoiled. :)

hmmm... i am a stubborn person and when my boyfriend and i has conflicting ideas and opinion on things and decision making... most of the time.., it takes time for me to compromise...but when it comes to family matters.. i don't want any arguments with my parents or siblings so i'm always the one who suggests to compromise...for the benifit of everyone..=)

My partner is usually the one who gives in to anything or everything that I want. It is not always smooth sailing, oftentimes I have to really work my way in order for him to agree with me. Even in decision making, I always find a way so that my idea will be prioritize and followed than his. We usually argue because of this. Because I kinda have a strong personality than him. But as time goes by, I have seen my mistakes. He also talked to me about a lot of times. I learned how to compromise. Now for every decision or anything that we have different opinions, we talked about it in a fair manner. I don't push what I want anymore. I also go for the best regardless if its mine or his idea.

Hello again! I just left an opinion/message to one of your other discussions. I guess they're pretty interesting. Hehehe... Anyways, I think once you find the one, you'll compromise a lot to make the relationship work. The way I see it, my fiance and I are two different people who are planning to join and make a life together for the rest of our lives (of course we have our similarities). Operative word - different. If I really wanna make this work, I'm gonna compromise and so is he.

Compromise in any sense seems to have a negative connotation? I think it would be best if instead of compromise it should be agreement. Because if you are to compromise you should sacrifice one thing for the other in the benefit of the relationship. But then if you would have come up into an agreement then you would not sacrifice anything and everyone would be benefited.
