Marriage = Compromise

When I was younger, I met my husband in the most unconventional places. I did not know the first moment I saw my husband how deep my love for him would go; but, I did know I liked him a lot. If you were to ask him the same question, he would inform you he did love me at first sight. There is no changing his mind. Although our opinions differ on ‘love at first sight,” today our marriage is solid. Marriage is a consistent compromise. If you are unable to compromise for the better of your relationship, you may never be able to stay married for fifty plus years. Just today we re-arranged the living room. I hate it, but as I told him, I would leave it for the next few months and re-arrange it the way I want it. Compromise is the key to my marriage.
