Yes, if it's a healthy relationship.
Then next time it might be the other person's purpose that takes precedence.
If one person's purposes take precedence all the time, then that is unhealthy.

A person's purpose in life is not a happy relationship. The purpose is to become whole within yourself.
Whenever you run up against feelings of jealousy, possessiveness, envy, anger, whatever it might be, your system should sound the alarm.
Be aware that you are now in the presence of one of your unfinished
areas.
There is work to be done and it is not the other persons fault.

Yes. In my relationship, my husband's purpose is more important than my own, to me. Conversely, my purpose is more important than his own, to him.
Source(s): Well, usually. That is how it is supposed to work. We all forget from time to time. We are not able to love perfectly unconditionally, as God does. - 1 decade ago
Purpose for what currently? Why not both people's purposes?

"Importance" is relative.
In the relationship I have with my wife, who would be more important?
Well, she is...right now...from both of our perspectives. She's carrying our child, so her continued health and well-being are more important than mine.
Discounting that, I would say we are both equally important to the survival of our relationship.

Can the dirt be more important than the rain to the fruit

Yes. Mine is definitely more important.
If my wife asks you, though, tell her I said it's hers.
