It's true, it takes compromise and negotiation.
I have one suggestion for the little stuff that can be irritating. In your example you asked about the dinner issue...if he askes don't say "I dunno", say "Let's have x". Be more decisive to stop that "whatever you want", "no, whatever you want". Sometimes you just got to do it.
I am right now mourning a bit, the freedom to travel where I want. I want to go on an Alaskan cruise so bad...yet my bf does not. What do I do? I am willing to go on my own but I don't want to cause a rift, either. I forfeited this trip this summer because of him, when there were amazing deals and now he isn't saying "yes" to next summer. I think I will be booking my trip now, with or without him (although I'd prefer he come with).
Oh, yes, me and my bf have a list of things we cannot/won't eat, it makes cooking so hard. I just come to realize he won't do garlic and onions! We eat vegetarian, to forego these herbs is so HARD! I'll have to cook them separate. Believe me, this is hard...so I relate. But it's still worth it.
We shall see.
