compromisation

what exactly do you do when you are torn between two pp you love dearly.

1)step back and hope for the best (as i always try to do)

or

2)make one party unhappy and the other satisfied?

i always try to make everyone around me happy.
but in this situation, i just have to choose one.
but who will understand me more to compromise?

can i say a prayer to make it go away?
