Re: Compromising
Aisha, as you grow older, you will realize that marriage is very similar to war. Both parties have to compromise and both parties have to suffer losses. You just have to pick your battles and prioritize. I know this sounds harsh, but it really isn't. As husband and wife grow closer over the years this comes easier. One learns about his/her partner and they learn what is important to each other and compromise accordingly.
A good book that helps marriage is "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.
