That when it comes to finding a partner it is better to not compromise on the things that are important to you.

I've a religious friend and I told her that she should look for a religious husband even if I'm not religious. In the same way, I've told feminist friends that they should not compromise on their values. Otherwise relationships doesn't work and you end bitter.

But when it comes to relationships, some people always tell women that they should compromise even in the things that are important to them for "the good of the family", "the good of the society", "the good of...". But that is not reciprocal, the "family" or the "society" or even their partners, aren't compromising and giving back. For the women making the sacrifices it is not worth it and they end sad and depressed. Well, it is better to keep looking for someone that is a good fit for you.

After all, if you compromise too much to be with someone who is not a good fit for you, if that person that would be a good fit for you comes around, you'll no longer be single. And then, either you cheat on your partner or you have to let pass the person who would be good for you. None of those outcomes is a good one. It is better to be single because you left open the opportunity to find someone good for you or, at least, you won't be compromising your values and dreams.
