Because you lack experience or confidence in some areas, you would benefit from observing from the background. Watching how other people go about the work seems to be the quickest way to learn. If you feel ill prepared for a job you have trained for, no one can blame you for doing anything wrong. It is the person who trained you who should be feeling guilty because they've not fulfilled their obligations.

If a relationship has been suffering because of a lack of time you have put into it, bring it onto the front burner. A partner may be as guilty for having put other interests in front of your joint ones. Find a way to grab their attention and get them on the same page as you. What's going on between you is stirring up some uncomfortable feelings. The sooner you face up to this the better.

You can't help but feel suspicious if a partner won't tell you what they're up to when you aren't together. You've always been a curious person but you don't pry. There's a difference between curiosity and being intrusive. You would never invade anyone's privacy but if you're just asking about their activities when you aren't together and they react on the defensive, that's when curiosity will turn into suspicion.

You thought you really meant it when you made a comment recently and it did come from the heart. The problem is, you were being spontaneous and it seemed natural to go with the mood of the moment. Now you've had a chance to think about it you realise nothing is as straightforward as it once seemed. You haven't exactly changed your mind but you do feel differently now and it's going to be hard to explain this to someone who's not likely to understand.

Housemates or family members are starting to rely on you too heavily. Just because you're more organised than they are and can plan your time to fit in extra requests as well as your usual routines, they shouldn't expect you to drop everything whenever they might need you. Eventually this will intrude into your own arrangements as the more you do for others, the more they will come to expect from you. Maybe you're overdoing it running around for them so much?

If you aren't happy with another person's methods, views or ethics, try to discuss these in a non-confrontational way. Getting angry, sulking or pretending you aren't bothered will intensify misunderstandings when you should be trying to do the opposite. If you think your partner's communications with a neighbour or colleague are inappropriate, ask why they're sending flirtatious messages to each other. Just be ready with your answer if they ask you why you've been reading them.

Choose your battles wisely. Avoid neighbours and colleagues who are starting to rant about issues they feel angry about. If you don't share their views but want to avoid an argument the best thing you can do is keep out of their way. Not everything is worth fighting about but that does not mean you will always be indifferent. When an issue that crops up affects you personally, you will fight for what you believe in.

Be careful with your bank cards, money and other possessions especially when you are out and about. Don't leave valuables lying around and avoid speculation as there are ways to lose money other than through theft and carelessness. It's a day to keep a tight hold on your purse or your wallet. If you are single and waiting for someone to contact you again after a first date, you may have to accept the uncomfortable truth that they aren't really interested.

You might feel you don't want anything more to do with someone. Once you've calmed down you will know you don't really mean it. For that reason, watch what you say, even if you're hurt, upset or angry. When you receive apologies, don't dismiss these as if they mean nothing. They will be sincerely given. No one has deliberately set out to hurt you; once you've had a chance to think about it you will realise this too.

A partner has responsibilities towards you even if they're trying to deny it. There is nothing confusing about the facts; they just don't want to interpret them properly. Seeking the advice of a professional seems like a big step and one you are reluctant to make. Even so, if someone continues in the same stubborn vein, stronger measures need to be taken in order to get them to see sense.

If you and a partner are drifting apart why not do something similar together at least once a week? Don't get into the habit of asking friends to join you or this will feel like any other day. You need to make this a special time that you can both look forward to. Ignore all those things that may have dragged your relationship down over the past few months and enjoy some quality moments together.

Unforgettable experiences shared with someone special are remembered; you wish you could go through it all again. Since then a relationship has had its up and downs but you can't keep blaming yourself for the things have gone wrong. You might wish a partner had been more honest with you when they started feeling differently about your union as this would have helped cushion the blow. The one thing they can't take away from you is your memories.
