When couples can't agree on whose schedule takes priority

My partner and I keep fighting about whose schedule gets priority when we plan things together and we both work demanding jobs but somehow mine always seems to bend to accommodate theirs and I don't know if I'm being fair or if there's actually an imbalance. We've never actually talked about how we decide whose time matters more.
