Someone in your life needs to step up and take on more responsibility, and you need to tell them to. You’ve been getting a little tired of bearing the brunt of a certain project or task, and this inequity needs to end today. How do you communicate this to them? In person. Make sure they don’t misunderstand what you’re telling them, and be available for questions. If you send an email or a text, they’ll undoubtedly take things the wrong way and get defensive.

The best part of dating someone new is discovering their interests, hopes, dreams and even fears. Don’t be too quick to rush to the commitment finish line. Enjoy the feeling of excitement when unearthing facts about your crush.

You and your beloved need a break. Enough with the talking. Enough with working on the relationship. Take a walk. Putter around in the garden. Watch some silly movies.

When people around you slack off, they’re taking a big risk. Don’t put yourself in the same precarious position. Remind yourself that you’ve never been one of the sheep, and stay committed.
