Combining an "I" and a "we" person?

Some of us are "I" people, meaning we think and do only for ourselves. It's not that we're selfish, it's just how we are while some other people are "we" people, meaning they prefer to be with someone else, making plans with others, etc...When an "I" and a "we" get together, how should a "we" person feel when their significant other is an "I" person? Ex. "I" person says "I'm planning to do x, y, and z this weekend" and means that they know that "we" person will be with them but doesn't SAY it. How does that "we" person come to terms with feeling left out even though they are being included? Sounds tricky, I know but I'm curious about your responses. Thanks!

    "I" person may not realize how "we" person feels. Communicating about the issue might help.

    It is a very difficult subject to have simple answer.

    "I" does not exist without "YOU"

    When someone claims that he/she is "good" but if no one agrees, then he/she is not "good".

    When you wnat $80,000/year because you think your are worth it but if your boss give you only $65,000., then your are only worth that,

    what ever the your claims maybe.

    What I am trying to say is, you will be valued, judged, determinded by others. that is fact.

    Both "I" and "WE" should consider each other but "I" should

    think of "WE" little more for better communications.

    Hope you will find a lot more thoughts about this issue including my little one and come up with far better, beautiful, everyone agreeing answers....starting from you.
