If you’re going to cut the cloth to fit the coat then make sure it’s a comfortable fit. You want something you can live with, not squeeze into.

You’ve been patient and loyal, so it’s time to find out what the other party does to merit it. If it’s less than satisfactory then say so.

You’re annoyed that you had to go around in circles only to end up where you began, but at least you arrived!

Nobody can be more surprised than you that you’re changing a firmly established position, but this only proves how committed you are to doing the right thing.

A rival isn’t the problem. It’s your insecurity. Projecting it on anyone who will carry it only creates a house of mirrors that may prove impossible to escape.

Don’t feel bad about being caught off-guard. You were so used to complications in one area of your life that you never thought to look anywhere else.
