[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think my marriage is about compromise. But we have to compromise to protect it. Every time you reach an impasse, you have to ask yourself “is this worth creating conflict in my marriage?” Sometimes the answer is yes. But most of the time? It’s no.

So I don’t think of it as being about compromise. The compromises are the choices I make because I value what my marriage is actually about — loving and supporting each other, building a life together, raisin a child together, taking care of each other.[/quote]

OP here. The problem comes in when it is almost always the same person backing down/giving in. And the other person not even acknowledging or realizing that, and denying it when it’s pointed out. I’m just so tired.[/quote]

I find that people who think they are always the ones compromising are often unable to see when they are getting their way, often because they are entitled and just expect to get their way (and so it doesn't register when they do). Any chance that describes you?[/quote]
