Just because someone you care about likes people to get along doesn’t mean they’re a doormat! Don’t worry about how a friend or loved one is handling a tense situation. You need to trust that they know what they’re doing. Have faith in them, and they won’t disappoint you. It wouldn’t be wise to offer unsolicited advice. They could take it as a sign that you don’t think they can handle things on their own. Just stand by and be there when or if they need you.
You’re about to meet your newest and best friend—you just don’t know it yet. Whether it stays platonic or turns into a raging romance remains to be seen. Meanwhile, play it cool and spend quality time together. Don’t place too many expectations on this blossoming relationship.
Work toward finding a balance between your own needs and those of your partner. You each have different things that make you tick, and there’s a middle ground where you’re both happy.
You just don’t feel social, but don’t change your plans. You may not enjoy entertaining today, but your efforts will be appreciated by others. Think of it as a long term investment.
