In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You should be honest with your guy friend about the fact you do not like him back. Have a sit down conversation with him at a good time and place Pick a time when your friend won't be stressed. You do not want to tell him right before a big football game or exam. Instead, wait for a weekend afternoon when neither you nor your friend have big plans or obligations. As it's just going to be you and your friend, pick a place that does not look like a date. Going out to lunch together may feel date-like, so choose something more low-key. What do you and your friend normally do together? Maybe you like to hang out in the park. This may be a better location. It can be difficult to tell your friend you're not interested in him. In the moment, you may feel nervous. Therefore, try to write down your thoughts ahead of time. This will help you get a sense of how you feel, and figure out the best way to express that. Get a pen or pencil and paper and jot down your thoughts. How do you feel? What is the best way to express this? From there, write down what you want from the conversation. Do you want you and your friend to work on salvaging the friendship? Do you need some space from this friend so he can sort out his feelings? You should not read out what you're writing word-per-word during the discussion. This is more of a way to get your thoughts out. By writing out your thoughts ahead of time, you can better express them in the moment. You want to try and get a sense of what your friend is feeling going into the conversation. Empathy is important at any point, but is vital to difficult conversations. Your friend may react negatively to the news, and you want to understand why so you do not become frustrated. Try to think how you would feel in your friend's position. Imagine having feelings for someone, and thinking that person may feel the same way. It would be crushing to hear the truth. Your friend will likely feel sad and disappointed, and worried about the harm done to your friendship. Carry this empathy into the conversation. While talking to your friend, he may react poorly. He may become upset, or even angry. Try to remember your friend is going through something difficult. Remember what it's like to be in his shoes in the moment, and you'll be better equipped to cope with a negative reaction. If you go into the conversation with assumptions, this may change how you act. For example, if you expect your friend to get mad, you may go into the conversation with hostility. Conversely, if you think your friend will shake it off easily, you may come off as uncaring. Remind yourself of what you don't know. You cannot know how a situation is going to unfold until it's occurring. Therefore, it makes no sense to make predictions. Go into the situation calm and optimistic, but with no assumptions on how your friend will react. By keeping your expectations open, you'll find it easier to deal with a range of potential reactions.
Summary: Choose a good time and place to talk. Write some notes. Feel some empathy for your friend. Remain open-minded.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This includes getting a new terrarium and being ready to provide extra attention and a little more time to the task. Most snails are hermaphrodites meaning they have both male and female sex organs. After laying a clutch of eggs, snails are generally ready to reproduce again in six weeks throughout the year. Snails lay between 30 and 140 eggs at a time; that's nearly 480 snails a year! The mating of two snails is possible but extremely painful for both snails, so it's not necessarily encouraged. For two snails to mate, one snail aggressively fights the other looking for attention harming both snails in the process. Eventually the pursued snail will give in and involuntarily receive a 'love dart' full of sperm. You might see a little white dagger-like thing sticking out of the snails body. Do not attempt to remove this as it could harm the snail even more. The love dart is the equivalent of having a thumb-sized needle in your stomach. To prevent mating, keep an eye out. You might see a snail with its male genitalia out (penis). This is identifiable by the long white stick-like thing close to the shell. Move the snail to a different terrarium until it has fully retracted; this could take a few hours, in some cases up to a day. If your snails have already laid eggs and you want to dispose of them, freeze them for 24 hours; then throw them in the trash.
Summary: Make sure you are ready to care for the baby snails. Be informed about mating. Look out for eggs.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Sometimes, depression can make someone feel isolated, alone, or withdrawn from others. Spending time with people you care about is one of the easiest ways to reduce stress and feel better and more balanced in your mood. Spend time with friends and family in person as much as you can. While technology makes texting or emailing easy, you'll benefit more from seeing someone face-to-face. Have a weekly get-together with friends or family over dinner. Meet your friends for a workout class or for coffee. You may find that socializing wears you out more quickly when you're depressed. It is okay to rest and have alone time afterward, just make sure that you are socializing regularly and not isolating yourself. Exercise is a great way to beat stress, feel energized, and balance your mood. In some studies, exercise is just as effective as medication in treating mild to moderate depression. Schedule your exercise during a part of the day when your energy is highest. This may be first thing in the morning or during your lunch break. If you don't like going to the gym, focus on other physical activities that you enjoy. For example, take a morning walk with your dog or start attending karate classes. Don't be afraid to start small. Even 10 minutes each day is better than nothing. Feeling relaxed can help you cope with the symptoms of depression, deal with stress, and increase your feelings of well-being. Spending time relaxing can help you work through stress and help to stabilize your moods. Aim to do a relaxing activity for 30 minutes each day. Watching TV doesn't count! Find relaxation methods that feel good to you. Try daily yoga, qi gong, tai chi, and meditation. Feeling depressed can make you isolate yourself and withdraw from activities you enjoy. Do something you enjoy or try a new hobby and stick with it, even when you dread leaving the house. Doing something you enjoy can help boost your mood and increase your self-esteem. Creating something (like woodwork or sewing) can bring satisfaction. Try painting, planting a garden, or learning a new language. If you feel like skipping the activity, try telling yourself you will just go for 20 or 30 minutes and then you can leave if you're still not feeling it. You may find that, once you get over the hump of getting out, you will enjoy yourself and want to stay. The foods you put into your body can affect how you feel. Avoid substances such as tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, and sugar, as these can affect your mood. Focus on eating several small meals throughout the day in order to maintain your energy levels. Pay attention to your nutrition to make sure you are eating healthy, balanced meals that contribute to your health, not take away from it. If you struggle with eating healthfully or have dietary restrictions, consider working with a dietician to help you eat better.
Summary:
Spend time with friends. Exercise regularly. Practice relaxation. Enjoy a hobby. Eat healthfully.
