Many people think that learning to compromise is one of the keys to a successful marriage.
Would it surprise you to learn that Focus marriage experts Dr. Greg Smalley and Erin Smalley disagree?
According to the husband-wife team, compromise – an agreement where each person makes concessions – may not be the best way to help ensure long-term satisfaction in a marriage.
“I hate the word ‘compromise,’” explains Greg. “I don’t want to settle. I want to reach for something better.”
That’s why, instead of compromising, the Smalleys have found that it’s best to find a solution that feels great to both of them.
