Life is different when you get into a new relationship with someone, you expect from your partner to accommodate your needs and standards and the same is required from the other side too. Earlier, everything was about you and fulfilling yourself but as a couple you are going to have to be selfless and change the way you prioritize things in life. You need to pull a certain sense of selfishness out of your system and think towards making your partner happy. In doing so, you also want the other person to have flexible attitude in accepting things as they are and only then you can have balanced relationship between you and your partner.
On every stage, you need to show willingness to make compromises and a sense of selflessness to prove to your partner that requirements of the relationship are above your personal desires. You must always be willing to prove that compromise is absolutely essential to maintain balance and peace in your relationship. However, when you acquiesce with the essential element of the relationship, he needs to show the same willingness for the sake of love as well.
Through this way, both partners establish balance, symmetry, fairness, and equality between each other. You prove to one another that you will work towards selflessness and will bring balance that is needed to breed out dysfunction. When you fall for someone, you let go of your selfish desires whenever necessary and carve your life around peace and maturity of love in a relationship.
