How to compromise and not lose your respect: If you don't remember anything, always remember relationships are give and take. Sometimes you have to give, just so you can take . If you feel like you are always giving, & the other person is taking, it's time to have that 1 hour talk to change some things. Your happiness is just as important as your significant other or spouse. There is no room for selfishness in relationships. Either work on it, or you will be working each other out of the door.
A Man's Pride & Ego: Every man's pride & ego can be a gift and a curse. It can save you or hinder you and when it comes to relationships, it has to go. In order for your relationship to grow, let the pride and ego go. Learning when to let go of your pride and ego is essential in relationships. What you have to realize is that you aren't less of a man to your woman when you show your soft side, when you show her that you care more about her at times than yourself, and that her happiness is just as important as yours. Trust that I understand coming into the relationship you probably had or may still have a huge ego. Issues will always come up, but how you handle them determines if they turn into problems. Most of the time, they can turn into problems because of your ego/pride and at times it won't allow you to let go of the same issue so you both can move forward, but you must realize it is hindering your relationship day by day.
When is having pride and ego important? Pick your battles. When your pride is hurt, let her know. People cannot read minds and I is better than just walking around angry. Your woman will always respect you as her man as long as you do, and that is talking to her instead of listening to your EGO. Women were created to love, care & become our help mates. Do not be afraid to show her your loving side, women love that. Everyone is prideful at some point or another, but today starts a new day and don't let that be an excuse on why your relationship cannot progress. You hold the keys to your relationship as a man & you can position where the relationship goes, if you just let go of your pride and ego. Sometimes you just have to truly take a look in the mirror, & as yourself, "Do I really want my relationship?" If yes, then start making changes!
"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interested, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus." ~ Philippians 2:3-5
