A parent or in-law means well, but you hate long lectures. Try to look interested because they’ll only start again from the beginning if they see you napping.
A dispute is resolved, but you can’t help feeling like certain issues weren’t fully addressed. Leave it alone and move on. That’s why it’s a truce and not a treaty.
Say what you know is on everyone’s mind. Once out in the open you’ll find that people are eager to talk about it.
Is the problem that you’re pressuring someone to say what you want or is this person making things harder by refusing to talk things out? Ease up for now.
It’s hard to see opportunity in the collapse of something you believed in, but it’s there. Keep on digging until you unearth it.
Are you moralizing to justify a position? Make sure your actions support your stance or someone may accuse you of hypocrisy.
