Compromise. That way everyone feels unhappy.
Seriously, if any medical issues or stressors or relationship problems have been cleared away, there may just be a fundamental difference between you and your partner. Then someone is going to need to give it up more than they want, and the other is going to go without more than they want.

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." (M. Scott Peck)
