Making decisions is hard, because they often affect other people. If you have to say no to people, it can feel bad. But giving in to someone can make you resentful.
In each situation there is a middle ground. You need to work out what you're prepared to compromise and what you need to be happy with the outcome. And then assert yourself and be clear about your needs.
You might not get exactly what you wanted at the start, but you'll be happier for having reached a compromise with no-one having to feeling guilty, selfish or forced into anything.
