Well I think that in relationships it takes a lot of effort, as in all things it is important.
When it comes to feelings, many variables come into play and many things are subjective; as you say, however, nothing is carved in stone and changes and changes must always be followed.
I don't believe in perfection; I love my wife and our life and our relationship are fantastic, like everything but there are ups and downs, there are good days and bad days... I think there is no escaping this.
In general, I also tend to always think in terms of roi eh eh... they are poker heritage that I carry around (for me poker was an investment... for others it was a little game heh heh!); over time, however, I have learned to leave aside the question of roi in some situations (there are rare exceptions, but they exist).
This is the thing. A lot of people these days never get to the point in their relationship where they are willing to compromise, because they are out the door before that happens. Eventually, I think it is a path to loneliness.
The ROI can change depending on what it is. It might be doing something for someone, just to make them smile.
Yes, it's true, and as far as roi is concerned, it can change.
Bravo exact word, compromise, in life it is normal to make compromises especially when it comes to relationships; I think it's right and it's also a way to take care of the relationship and of the other.
Many times I don't even see mine as compromises or sacrifices because when you love the other certain things come so naturally that you perceive them as such; seeing Reny serene and happy makes me happy so I never see something that leads to this goal as a sacrifice.
Helping each other grow is valuable in my opinion. Yes, sometimes it might grow apart, but sharing in that journey of growth is important.
