Intensive stud The Language of compromise By Leslie dunklin I "Let me give you one piece of advice, I said to Ted and Mary just before they got married a few years ago.

The Language of Compromise By Leslie Dunkling 1 “Let me give you one piece of advice”, I said to Ted and Mary just before they got married a few years ago. “If you want to stay happily married, always be prepared to compromise. When you have different opinions about something, you each give way a little. You take the middle course. That is compromise.” And I’m glad to say that the young couple seemed to take that advice.

Intensive stud 2 I remember when they took their first holiday together. Ted wanted to do something energetic, because he didnt usually get much exercise during the year. Marys job meant hat she was on her feet most of the time. all she wanted to do was lie in the sun. Ted hated the idea of lying on a beach; mary hated the idea of being too active. They compromised, and took their holiday in mid-summer, high in the Alps. Mary was able to lie in the sun by the hotel swimming pool, while ted went off for long walks in the mountains with a group of hikers. In the evening they met at the hotel, both content with their day, happy to eat a leisurely meal together and dance a little afterwards
