The way onesnowyowl puts it though, is that losing a freedom is not always a bad thing. And it's not so much a loss of freedom as it is respect for your SO.

Different tastes are negotiated when a couple goes to a movie, restaurant, monster truck rally... I spent a recent bachekor weekend renting all the DVDs I've been wanting to see that I know Ms. Poppy wouldn't appreciate.

It's the type of abating freedoms that is described as sacrifice, which is generally a good thing. You give some, you gets some.

And now the thread is completely jacked.
