Today, gentle teasing could feel like a harsh rebuke and a brief smile could seem like a massive come-on, all because you’re going through a very sensitive phase. Physical and emotional stimulation could be magnified greatly, so try to keep to yourself if you can. If you can stay home alone, do it. But if a solo day isn’t in the cards, just try to take things slowly and speak up when you’re uncomfortable.

It’s time to stop the chatter, either in person or online, and find some serious common ground. What makes this new person interesting and what is the potential connection? Point it out to yourself!

Arguments don’t always have a clear winner. Take a closer look to see if the issue is less about the topic at hand and more about a power struggle within your relationship.

It’s not just you. No one is getting any raises right now, so don’t take it personally. You can spend this time getting your ducks in a row instead of pouting or stressing over your lack of funds. There is always a better tomorrow.
