Relationships are more likely to last when people are willing to make sacrifices for the sake of the relationship. Couples are also more happy in relationships where the partners are willing to sacrifice for each other… it’s nice to know you care about each other enough to make the other person your top priority.
Sacrificing for someone you love may help you show them you care and may even make you feel good about yourself. But if you find yourself always being the one who sacrifices or feeling forced to make a sacrifice, then you should tread with care.

Have you had experiences with choosing whether or not to make an important sacrifice?

Hmmm...depends on the definition of 'important sacrifice' I guess...
Does going to McDonald's because the kids want it instead of going to some restaurant where you can really eat food count?

Soooo if I sacrifice(bullet in the head) my hubby then it means I'm going to be happy forever

I would willingly sacrifice everything you had.

My sacrifice...........married for 38 years , all for children sake

Sometimes sacrifices are good. But I've seen couples marry and then expect the other one to give up everything they've always loved like participating in a time consuming sport and that's not good. You have to let the other person keep their dreams too.
