Well my honey and I haven't been together that long but when we are --we are so alike and think the same in so many areas that we hardly ever disagree. If we do, it's minor things that really don't matter much. I would much rather have things peaceful and happy -- it's not that important to be right-- one can always agree to disagree if it's something that means that much to you.
You should stand up for what you believe in of course, but with things that significant, my sweetie and I pretty much have the same feelings and beliefs.

No. I watched my mum do that as I was growing up and then I started doing it with my dad too. Not at all healthy...especially as now he loses his temper whether you agree with him or not (dementia is not pretty).
My husband I just tend to agree with because we agree! If we have arguments, they're only little scuffles over obscure points of view, never the big things. Like the closest thing we've ever had to a fight was over the nature of time and whether or not time travel was theoretically possible. What a couple of nerds!

No, not all the time... but I have learned to "pick my battles" so to speak.
There are some things worth debating and many that are not... This is part of the "give and take' in any relationship.
If this question were posed to both of you, I would hope that you both would be able to say that there are many things that you each sacrifice for the other such as this...

I tried that in one relationship, and ultimatly it failed because I lost my cajones. It turned into a power struggle on her end rather than an attempt to have a meeting of the minds. Granted, it is a matter of degrees, but I don't think any woman holds respect for their man if he is continually agreeing or being a doormat. Conversely, no man maintains his self respect if he doesn't put his foot down on matters of import. If it's a matter of what color she wants to paint the bathroom, well I chalk that up as "her domain". If it comes down to organizing the garage, that's my domain. Anyone who lets their woman run rampant on them deserves what they get, which is mostly, neutered.

Sometimes on insignificant things. But if it's important to you then you should stand by how you feel. Give and take is part of a relationship. Should you always be the one giving in? Hell no. And most def not on the important stuff. Plus no one wants to be with someone that has no backbone, opinion or preference. It is very boring....

On some things I have to stand my ground, you see, she's a compulsive shopper and I couldn't let her have her way all the time.
When agreement has no drastic effects, I've learned it's sometimes best to just agree. I'm very fexible and she's very stubborn and holds a grudge for a long time.

I never just agree but I will allow my husband to make certain family decisions. Such as moving in with his family in order to save some money. I'm the Wife and I will support my husband, itz that simple

Well you are a woman & you will know that nothing stays the same with us one day I may say nothing another day it may be different but to be honest
Do you want to prove you are right or do you want peace??
& that can be so true
