The Bottom Line:
Stop clinging tightly to your demands -- it is time for you to start compromising.

In Detail:
Negotiations in one of your more tense relationships are not going well, but you can improve the situation today if you stop clinging so tightly to your demands. That, unfortunately, could cost you the goodwill you've built up between the two of you. This person is just as deserving as you are, so give them the respect you expect in return. Once this happens, both of you will be much more willing to come to terms with the ensuing events.

Some way or another, I think I get the clearer picture now.
Damn, why did I noticed this earlier?

Hello World, I'm back, not depressed, slightly pessimistic but mostly okay.
Life's still good. I'm still rolling with the punches :)
