Opposites.
The old saying is that opposites attract.
You ever notice that? Probably.
That is never more true than in a marriage.
She’s always cold. He’s always hot.
He loves the beach. She loves the mountains.
She wants to watch a romantic comedy. He wants to watch ESPN.
What’s a couple to do?
Fight? Disagree? Go to their respective corners and count to ten?
How about compromise? While compromise often seems to be a negative thing, it doesn’t have to be. It can be positive. And, healthy.
In any relationship, compromise is a must. It’s about give-and-take. It’s about sharing.
Well put Steve. Jo & I are opposites. She can't make up her mind whether she is cold or hot. I am mostly hot. I like the mountains and adventure. She likes the computer and sitting in front of the TV. She likes action movies. I like all kinds (mostly action). I am very active. She is not (unless you count fingers moving on a computer active). We compromise. I give in and she wins. LOL Good thoughts here my friend. Say hi to my family on FB.

ReplyDeleteLove each other completely and lift each other up. Involves a lot of compromise, but it is definitely worth it.
