compromise?

i CAN NOT get my boyfriend to compromise with me. all these ladies you see on fb and other places are like "i'm in charge. he does what i say. i'm always right" etc and it's not as great as it seems. he always gives in to me and i'd rather meet in the middle somewhere. how can i talk to him about this? i've tried and he always says "it's up to you." about everything!! any lines i can try and pull? or anything???!!
