Only one thing you can do. Sit down and figure out how you reached this situation.
If you are playing a game, game's over, and learn from your mistakes.
If it is a real life situation, accept your situation, and negotiate.
If you cannot or will not negotiate, look up the word 'masochist' in the dictionary. You are one.
In case you don't have a dictionary: Masochist: A person who enjoys suffering. This suffering is often self-inflicted.

is it because no one is allowing compromise? in a game, for example, there is probably only ONE specific ending to the game. altho u can approach it in different ways, u still have to somehow "defeat" the monster or something, so in that sense, u have to replay the game over and over and find diff ways to get to ONE result. however, in real life, if it is over some kind of situation or debate, the key to it is being able to UNDERSTAND the other person's point of view. whether or not they are right or wrong is not the point! u know why? cuz *inside their own heads*, for whatever reasons (be it personal experience, how they've been taught, what sort of doctrine they lean towards and think is right) THEY ARE RIGHT. if you can somehow see how they are thinking, thru their eyes, u can try to analyze it and find strenghts/weaknesses/*loopholes* thru your own interpretation, but still using their thought.
once u understand their point of view, it gives you the ability to *validate* their thinking, but still twist or add on reasons why they make sense, or why they may not. but when u do not validate someone's thinking, u automatically put up a barrier for that person to oppose you. instead u want to say "i understand what u are saying, BUT" and then list ur reasons, which need to make real sense too. if they don't, ur arguing is pretty much useles.. if u want u can message me w/ the situation and i could try to reason it out as an unbiased 3rd party.. that helps also.

When facing a dead end, go back along the road that lead you there and take a different direction.
There is a good Turkish proverb:
"No matter how far you have gone on the wrong road, turn back."

Being a Christian, I turn the situation over to God in prayer, asking Him to resolve it in the way He sees fit. And then I go about my life and wait. Never have been disappointed, He always comes through for me. His ways are always superior to what I think may be the "best" solution.

I usually just start the game over.
