An awkward silence can easily evolve into a long period of miscommunication. So if you put your foot in your mouth today, rely on honesty to dig you out of that hole. Be real, ‘fess up, and all will be forgiven. The worst thing you can do is dance around the truth. You’ll only end up looking suspicious. Conversely, if you’re on the receiving end of a tacky comment, be generous and try to create an environment where the other person can be real and admit it.

Dates don’t have to be filled with perfect moments in order to be memorable. You can have a fun time in almost any situation thanks to your creative outlook and amazing sense of humor. Give your date the opportunity to match you!

Believe it or not, your fragility and faults make your relationship stronger. What you think of as a weakness lends you a unique perspective. Your partner appreciates what makes you different.

Doom and gloom has clouded your perspective. Don’t forget that your plans are long term. In the right light, you can see that they’re still working.
