Yes, Marriage Is About Compromise
In the early stages of dating, you are so excited about each other that you always tend to think of the other person first. It’s all about their needs and making them happy. As relationships wear on, there is less of that way of thinking and more of, “what about me?”
It’s the give and take that is important here. If one person is always giving and the other person is always taking, it breeds resentment. If neither person ever thinks of the other persons needs — well, that’s very off balance as well.
Listen up; love is not enough if you aren’t thinking about needs. We all need our egos stroked a bit and to feel like our desires are being met. Successful couples know that they often have to meet in the middle.
