RE: A Chip Away

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.

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.
