Believe it or not, you’re an expert at romance. You just don’t do it the way most folks do. When you’re out to impress someone, you don’t just pick up a pizza and beer. You make sure you’re wooing them in most elegant fashion with limos, fine wine, and tickets to the theater. However, if you can’t afford all that, don’t worry. If anyone can make that pizza and beer evening feel truly special, even elegant, it’s you.

Your practicality can come in handy now, when people tend to get a little too caught up in romantic drama. Your ability to keep a level head is what sets you apart from the rest of the dating pool.

Your routines are comforting to you, and your partner almost certainly recognizes that. Still, if you want to take a step away from the known, this is the perfect time to do it.

Your friends can help drag you out of the funk you’re in. That’s because it’s really not about money, even though you think it is. They’re detached enough to point you toward the real source of your discontent. That’s assuming you’re objective enough to hear them.
