shabby chic home decor

I am not happy living here, because me and my boyfriends style are completely different. what should i do?
I love him so much. We are engaged and have a fantastic relationship. I am not asking if we should seperate. I am asking what i should do. Haha! My house does not "blend". Me and my boyfriends style are COMPLETELY different. I feel like when people come in, they know exactly who decorated what. I have every room in the house except the living room and we share the bedroom. The living room is full of red walls, scarface and mafia posters, skulls, dragons and leather furniture. My kitchen, dining room, and bathrooms are floral and pretty.. shabby chic if thats what you want to call it. It drives me crazy. Its so hard decorating the way you want to when you and your man have 2 completely different tastes in home decor. I am not selfish and even tho i would love to decorate the whole house, i wouldn't think that its fair. I have put a lot of money into the things that i have bought and he has as well, but it just doesn't go together.. Haha! :/
then talk to him and make a compromise about how to decorate.
