You know that well-deserved reputation you’ve acquired for being considerate, cooperative, and extremely easy to get along with? Let’s just say it might temporarily be in danger, not because you’ve lost that loving feeling, by any means, but because you’re about to have a serious urge to fight city hall and all its representatives on behalf of a loved one. The thing is you’ll be pretty darned good at it without even trying.

Socializing is in the cards, but to make sure it’s not all talk and no action, be an active listener. You’ll learn more through sharp observation and careful questioning than you can imagine.

Negotiating could actually work against you getting what you need from your partner. Have you thought about retiring to your separate corners for a little while and letting matters sort out on their own?

You’re making the most of a bad situation, and even learning to enjoy it. Your positive attitude will rub off on someone today. Hope it pays off ala ‘Great Expectations.’
