INPUT ARTICLE: Article: For the first weeks or months after a breakup, space is key. If you try to jump straight into friendship, this is likely to backfire as you'll both be too emotional. Agree to a set period of time to cease or minimize contact so feelings of attraction, romance, and resentment can fade. How much time you give is subjective. Some people may be ready for friendship in a few weeks, while others may need a few months. How much time you spent in the relationship will have an effect; longer relationships typically require longer periods of limited contact. The reason it can be difficult to stay friends with an ex is that people feel the relationship is not finished. If you find yourself feeling you have more to say, or still need closure, it's not the right time to be friends. Wait until you feel at peace with the breakup to pursue a friendship. If you need to talk about a few more things before you can be friends, have a discussion with your ex about any loose ends a few weeks after you break up. Be sure to tie up practical loose ends. If you shared belongings or lived together, wait until your lives are completely separate before pursuing a friendship. Boundaries are important to any relationship, especially complicated ones. Recognizing your own feelings and limitations is key to establishing firm boundaries with an ex. Spend some time thinking over how your ex makes you feel and what kind of contact you're comfortable with. Ask yourself what kind of contact makes you feel bad. Maybe you don't like discussing your ex's new relationships. Maybe you don't like that your ex still calls you by your pet name. It's always okay to request someone stop or tone down behaviors that bother you. Find a good time and place to have a calm, sit down talk about your boundaries in regards to a friendship. Let your ex know directly what kind of contact is still appropriate and let them share their feelings as well. State your boundaries outright so there's no ambiguity. For example: "I'll eventually be fine with hearing about your romantic life, but I really need space from that right now. Let's not talk about dating together." Setting boundaries after a breakup can hurt, even if it's for the best. Recognizing contact will be more minimal and that certain topics are off limits can sting. After setting boundaries, do something nice for yourself. Go for a walk, watch a movie, or make plans with friends. Doing something nice for yourself may take your mind off of the break up and help you distance yourself from the subject. In turn, this may help you recover sooner.

SUMMARY: Agree to give each other space at first. Wait until there's no unfinished business to pursue a friendship. Recognize your feelings. Talk openly about boundaries. Care for yourself.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: As people age, bathing may become difficult. This may be due to a fear of falling, difficulty getting in or out of the tub or shower, difficulty washing themselves, or even a result of a cognitive disorder, such as Alzheimer's or dementia. As you start to approach an elderly family member or friend about their hygiene, keep all of these things in mind and aim to be as respectful and tactful as possible. Approaching the situation indirectly will avoid putting too much pressure on your loved one or client. It is important to make them feel comfortable before going about suggesting a change in routine, which for many elderly can be upsetting and difficult. For example, you can begin by asking whether they have enough grooming supplies, and if they respond yes, ask,"Well is that enough soap for your showers and baths this week? How many would you say you take on average?", or if they respond no, "Just to get an idea for when I'm shopping, how many baths or showers a week should we restock you for?" If you find out that they're bathing fewer than two times a week, change your tone of voice from casually inquisitive to concerned. Approach the issue from a medical, rather than a personal, standpoint, stressing the importance of hygiene to overall health. Explain that doctors recommend bathing at least twice a week to prevent infection. Try something like, "You know I've heard on the news / from my doctor that not only should everyone bathe every week, they should bathe at least twice a week for better health. I think we should give this a try." Bringing up body odor might disappoint or anger them, making it more difficult to convince them to change their routine. And since seniors can have a decreased sense of smell, they might not be aware that there is an odor problem. Pointing this out to them could cause anxiety if they're unable to detect the odor and might wonder about it. Depending on their physical condition, bathing or showering may be a source of anxietyundressing, getting in and out of the tub, washing, drying off, and dressing might require more energy than they have. They may be afraid of falling in the tub, have had a bad experience with scalding or icy-cold water, or easily lose track of time. Take note of these for consideration when arranging for help with washing, and improving bathroom safety. To try to understand what anxieties they may have, ask questions such as, "Have you been hurt while using the tub, by falling, or by the temperature of the water?" or "Do you feel really tired after washing?" If fatigue or fear of falling seem to be issues, strongly consider either bathing the person yourself or hiring a caregiver.
Summary:
Be aware that poor hygiene is not always a choice. Get an idea of the person's general grooming habits. Suggest a change in routine. Avoid mentioning any issues with odor. Ask the person about their concerns and needs regarding bathing.
