Our ego's


My anger


I have given up living near my partner. I moved to Canada for his work and havent lived near them for the last five years. We are married now and continue to live this way, but got married close to my family.


I don't see any of them as giving up it's more like trading in. One dream for another, one choice for another.


We haven't given anything up. I finally have a great relationship that I don't have to give anything up!!! It's perfect!!


I don't give up anything. I made choices!


Everything - almost literally


I had to give up my intense fear of commitment and relationships in general. After that we have learned (and are learning) to give up some things that needed giving up- namely insecurities and issues from past relationships. He, however, also had to give up a little of his freedom since I have a ten year old that comes along with me, so we can't always pick up and go do what we want when we want. But he has never complained about it- one more reason to adore him!


Friends, social lives, everything, all worth it<3


We have given up on extra stuff like cable and the gym and extra spending. Money is right lately so we're really focusing on making or money work for us. Also since I've gone back to school and time is short we express our appreciation and gratitude for one another more often. (((<3)))


Right now, spending money. She's been part time, and I just had my hours cut back. So our budget has been pretty impacted. So we're eating in more, and spending less on frivolous items.


Not sure, wouldn't you give up things to make your relationship work?


Drinking , smoking , partying, going out.


The need to be "right", "prove our point" and (for me!) "not do too much so the score isn't even".
