Having a long lasting relationship entails the application of the principle of compromise and   sacrifice by the both parties involve in the relationship
Sacrifice involve going out of your way to meet the need of the other person or give the needed attention your partner needs even when it is not ok for you. Sacrifice involves places the need of the other person above your own need. The word compromise or sacrifice can be used interchangeable in a relationship, as it means giving up our self wishes and desires in order to accommodate the need of the other person. The principles of sacrifice helps us to have a balance in a relationship when the two parties in a relationship are willing to make little sacrifices and compromises here and there, denying self in order to make their relationship  to work.

Sacrifice helps to build up long lasting relationships as far as your efforts are not taken for granted by your partner but they are always well seen and appreciated. Sacrifice and compromise helps to build trust and commitments in  a relationships. This also builds up the bond over time between the two people involve in the relationship.

For sacrifice and compromise to work well in a relationship, there has to be a balance between the two parties involve in a relationship. In a situation where one person is the giver of sacrifice, commitment and compromise for their relationship to work and the other party is not doing the same, the other party my feel cheated and disappointed.

 We are all humans and effort should be make by all parties in a relationship to make it to work. Strive to create a balance in your relationship by being willing to give at all times when need arises to build a balance relationship. Do not expect so much from your partner when you are not also giving much. This is a law of life that to whom much is given, much is also expected.

For long lasting relationship, there should be an understanding between the two parties concerning when either of the parties should be willing to make a little sacrifice or compromise for the relationship to work. This involve both parties in a relationship being sensitive to the needs of their partner per time and be willing and able to make sacrifices where needed to build up the commitment and trust in the relationship.

Also remember that at the initial stage of commencing your relationship, both of you were always motivated about the relationship and where willing to make each other happy and at the same time make the relationship to work. The same things that you did at the beginning of your relationship to make it to work should be sustained throughout the life of any relationship in order to make it to work and last long.

When you are willing to make sacrifices for your relationship to last longer, it is always interpreted as signs of commitment from your partner and this will serve as  a level of serious trust between you and your partner and it will also encourage your partner to make similar sacrifices and compromises when the need arises  as far as the person is a positive thinking person that is ready and committed to building long lasting relationship.

Poster you are right. ITs all good... at the same time, r/ship can never work if the two couples are not compatible. If there is no mutuality goin on btwn them. As for compromising and sacrificial initiation btwn the two: If there is no love I mean agape love...from Christ btwn them, it will b hard to compromise while sacrificing at d same time. Good job...
