Introduction

Compromise is often treated like the sacred cow of relationships, but it's time for this outdated concept to come to an end. When many of us are young, we do not feel accommodated and considered by our parents. This causes a deep wounding around not being considered or accommodation. It also gives rise to desire for the exact opposite: compromise. To concede is to yield, give up, or give away something you value. You cannot do these things without experiencing pain.
