It works for me.
We know each other well enough that when we are not physically together and a decision needs to be made, we've got a pretty good idea of how the other would feel about it.
The rule for us is generally whoever cares more about a subject is the one that's going to get their way unless it's just totally impossible or unreasonable (He wants a boat, I'm fine with that, we can't afford the one he is drooling over)
I want chickens more than he doesn't want chickens, so we are getting chickens.
He wants to plant 100+ onions in the garden more than I don't want to plant 100+ onions in the garden, so 100+ onions are getting planted.
Right now the baby cares more about being naked than his dad or I care about making him wear clothes, so I guess the kidlet can have his way.
This is how my marriage works also.
If my marriage would have worked that way I would likely still be with her and happy about it.
