Bedroom Color: Pink or Gray?

An oyster lets that sand irritate it, so the pearl (of love) can be born inside of its shells! Likewise, without accepting the irritating "dislikes" in the relationship, love can't grow inside of our "shells"!

Let's say the husband says, 'let's paint the bedroom gray color'...and the wife says, 'no way, it will be pink'. Then each must make a clear decision:

Either one spouse would yield to the other

Or, one would ask for more time to think about it

Or, one simply would not yield at all

Obviously, there will be a period of struggle, and finally someone decides to accept the dislike (bedroom color) for the sake of the other. In result, a special love grows, as the "winner" recognizes the sacrifice the "loser" made.

However, let's look at a different scenario, when, both never clearly and strongly state what they dislike, or like about the matter (bedroom color) and let the painter guy decide! This way, nobody has to yield and thus nobody has to accept the dislikes of the other! Would love grow in such a relationship?! Without the irritation and the struggle, between dislikes as well as likes, no one would know who sacrificed for who!
