One person makes a proposal. The other either says it's okay, or makes a counter-proposal. Revisit after a month or two, and adjust as necessary.
It's like the other parts of a relationship: identify problems, seek agreement, make suggestions, back off when necessary, check to see if changes have improved anything.
