We both have the final say. We make decisions together.

If either ne can override the other they have no respect for each other. No man or woman has the right to dictate anything to the other as a final verdict. To me equality or nothing. We share

We haven't really had any decisions to make yet since we've only been together 2 months. But I'm assuming we will do it together.

Both of us.....Our relationship is balanced and we talk about things and try to find a happy medium when making decisions. Sometimes, he has a better idea, and sometimes I do, but as long as we talk it through, we can make decisions together.

Peace~

We figure things out together and then come to a final decision... I'll be honest though when it comes to situations inside his opinion bears more weight because he knows the full scope of things in there. and there are things that come up that we don't have time to talk about, we trust each other to make the best decision for us.

We work through everything together coming to a mutual agreement. We also sometimes give each other their own ways if its not something big no use to fuss n fight about it.

Well we talk about everything and give our opinions... if it's something that can't wait we trust each others judgment. But the final say? I will have to say my man, and I don't have a problem with it, he is the man of my family and I respect him. He has the best interest at heart so it's cool with me.

We generally both do, but he makes the decisions on how we spend the phone minutes, he does a good job of stretching them for the whole month. This month was my birthday and we were able to talk two hours thanks to his budgeting lol. We also will talk two hours for his birthday on the 30th of this month. He refuses to let me pay for anything! Very blessed right now

The Final Say.... Most of the time it would be Him. and Im fine with that. i have a strong personality and its cool to have someone else be the head boss once in a while. Plus i think traditional male /female roles are very sexy! I think this works for us because he is respectful, secure and mature! Some decisions he tells me to make the decision i feel is best because he trusts me.

we talk about everything - and we try to agree on the best way - but when we can't do that - he will make the final decision, i love knowing that i can trust him to do what is best for his family and that he is the head of our home. we are very traditional but he is not a dictator - so it makes me feel safe. not oppressed.

you know i was just thinking - how can both have the 'final decision' - how can every situation be mutually agreed and thus both making a choice together? what about those times when you absolutely 100% do not see eye to eye - then who is making that decision? someone has too - ??

Well...
With certain stuff honestly he thinks I'm better off making the better choice.. of course we talk about everything but he says I have his life in my hands and he trusts me.. but idk.. certain things one of us is better off making that final choice..
But he says baby you're the boss lol I think he likes to make me feel I am in control. But never would make it if we didn't discuss and work thru whatever it maybe.

I make all the decisions. Unless it involves him and his case, then that's his decision. Unless he wants my input. I'm the one running everything, so I'm going to make the decisions. I've been doing a pretty good job of it all on my own for years and years.
Besides that, he's not in a place where we can communicate regularly to even make decisions together.

I would say that he has the final say... He's the boss of the house - though he's away for now... It is what it is!
