One of your friends or co-workers has been giving you mixed messages for a while, and you’ve been getting more and more confused about things. Before you lose your patience, stop and realize that you can clear everything up quickly by just asking more questions! By biting your tongue you’re making things too complicated. You have the strength to push back when someone says something that doesn’t sound right to you. This person won’t be offended that you don’t believe them.

A friend seeking help with a relationship issue probably doesn’t want criticism, either of how they got into this mess or of the other party involved. Be kind and compassionate.

You and your partner each have an area of expertise in this relationship. Maybe you change the oil in the car while they deal with the budget. There’s nothing wrong with finding a comfortable groove.

Your mind is in the past. If only your bank account were. But one here and one there just leaves you feeling weird. Don’t waste emotional energy feeling sentimental.
