So (and I'm chronically single, so bear with me) they don't have to examine their negative? I mean, no always wins? There's no sucking it up from the other side?
Not quite. You're completely able to raise the issue and try to get your partner to reconsider their objection. Sometimes they'll go, "Huh. You are so right." But rarely. Ultimately you have to respect their feelings even when they seem CRAXY. Bottom line (my opinion only) you have to privilege the relationship over your wants, but that doesn't mean you can't advocate for what you want.
And some issues are non-negotiable (cf. JZ giving up beloved cats to move in with allergic me.)

She's all that and a bag of chips.

And they have to do the same, right? That's the part I don't get. If Mr. W came to you with his side of exactly this divide, would you tell him to sit tight until he gets what he wants, because he's on the negative side, or would you tell him to think about how important this is for Susan, how much it means to him, and that he should respect the priorities of the woman he married, even when they seem CRAXY?
I may never walk right again. But that's...kinda ok.
That sounds ... kinda ok.
Anyone here tried Zelnorm?
What? PDR? Eh, I have Buffista power!
Hee, Eddie.
Scrumptious cleavagey slutbomb, yo!
Got my hair cut (your style, Laura!) and colored (red red red) today. I am very happy with it.
Susan, I wouldn't borrow heartache if I were you. This doesn't need to be decided tonight and you don't need to react as if it does. Lots can happen. Maybe by the time you get your check for your first book, you will have found a hand-colored print of a soldier in regimentals which you HAVE to have insterad of a gun. Maybe a show you guys watch on the History channel will help Dylan relax a little about firearms. Maybe when Annabelle is older, he'll feel btter or you'll be less interested. Anything can happen! I also don't know why you expect him to be excited about the same things you are. The BF is very fond of his signed photos of 1972 Miami Dolphins players and I couldn't NAME a 1972 Miami Dolphin player. He has never even looked inside one of my adored collection of children's books in all the years we have lived together. It doesn't bother me for me to have things which are only mine and give only me pleasure.

This might explain my recently reaquired singleness. I see this and think Claritan might be worth a shot. Unless they are deadly allergies. That would change things for me. YIssuesMV...

Funny, 'cause, you know, "Robin". Ok, not so much.
In related news, I got highlights this past weekend. I don't know if anyone has gone through this, but imagine an angry cat walking on your head for 15 minutes and you get the idea.

That took me a few seconds to get, but then I started laughing.
