There is never a good time to tell someone bad news, but there are ways of easing the blow. If you need to deliver a harsh message to someone you love, make sure you’re ready to offer them some emotional support should they need it. Give yourself plenty of time for this conversation, and definitely do not do it over the phone or via e-mail! You can turn a potentially unpleasant experience for them into a rewarding and bonding experience for the both of you.

You don’t have to be 100 percent sure that this person is totally into you before you start flirting. That’s ridiculous. Start flirting and see how it goes.

You’ve been waiting to kick back and chill with your loved one. Things have been smooth sailing between the two of you, so celebrate with a fun day or night out.

The details don’t matter as much as the final goal today. Do you really want to jump through hoops to get there? It’s a good time to sit yourself down and ask yourself that very question. Otherwise, all the details in the world won’t add up to much of anything.
