I once had a conversation with a wise military general who gave me valuable insight. He referred to it as the “equation of love”:
1 + 1 = 1
The essence of this equation is compromise. You and your partner become one by compromising.
The exact balance may vary — it could be 50–50 or 60–40, depending on what works best for you both.
Recognize the need for compromise in your love life, just as you compromise in various aspects of your everyday life.
