If you have a discussion and it doesn't end with a solid conclusion, you may feel more confused than ever. You may decide to put your life on hold while your significant other decides whether he or she wants to be with you, yet think about how this is helping or hurting you. Don't allow your wants, desires, and needs to be pushed aside while your significant other figures out what he or she wants. Ask yourself, "Will I regret these actions if the relationship doesn't work out?" Ask, "Am I letting this person dictate my life or giving control over to this person?" You may choose to stay with this person despite the differences of opinion on commitment. If this is the case, you may need to give up any feelings of negativity, hurt, blame, or judgment. Radical acceptance means choosing to accept life as it is without forcing your own desires or wants on top of what is. It means accepting things that may feel unfair or hard without resisting what you cannot or choose to not change. If you stay in a relationship that does not meet your needs 100%, then it is up to you to accept the situation. If your significant other has made it clear to you that he or she does not plan on changing, then it's up to you how to respond. If you stay, you cannot express resentment or negativity for this choice. Instead, recognize you have made a choice and will handle the consequences. Say to yourself, "This is the choice I have made and I accept the feelings and consequences that result from it." Don't allow yourself to get completely wrapped up in fears about the relationship. Put your energy into pursuing things that encourage you to grow and become a better person. Follow up on your own hopes and dreams and remind yourself that you can accomplish your goals outside of your relationship. Start a meditation practice, yoga, or relaxation. Join a gym or start an activity you enjoy, such as sewing or painting. If you made goals or agreements during your discussion, follow through on them. Ask your significant other to also follow through on any agreements he or she made. While having the discussion was important, it's equally important to follow through on anything discussed. For example, you may have agreed to a monogamous relationship for 1 month, or you agreed to stay together as long as you move in together in 2 months. If your significant other agreed to propose to you within 3 months, make sure these agreements are kept. If your significant other refuses or is unwilling to follow through on agreed upon items, this is a red flag. If you feel like you are not getting your needs met, it's not worth staying in the relationship. You might feel like you put in more work and effort than your significant other yet feel unfulfilled. If there isn't a balanced give-and-take in the relationship, think about leaving. You may feel like this issue is a "deal breaker", and if so, break the deal.

Article: Decide how thick you want the coat, or determine the type of finish that you want (from completely smooth to rough and textured). If you are right-handed, you will be holding the skimmer plate in your left hand and the compound applicator in your right hand. You may have to adjust your technique to get the desired thickness and texture. You can always add more compound to the surface, but once dry, it is messy and time-consuming to remove. Mound the compound up at one end of a repair area, then pull it across the surface with the compound applicator. Apply firm, even pressure in the direction of the joint/crack, similar to pulling a window squeegee, such that little material is present on either side of the repair area. Start in one corner of the wall, and work down from the highest point. If you are skimming a ceiling, start at an edge and work towards the center. If you have never skimmed before, try practicing on a piece of scrap drywall. This way, you can get used to the applicator and the weight of the compound, and you can see what it will look like when dry. Once you have applied the first scoop, take another and work out of the spot you just finished. Be thoroughmake sure that each new scoop overlaps with the last. Pull the coat in different directions to even out bumps and valleys regardless of how they are aligned. A repair area isn't flat: it is a low, smooth mound, made to look flat. Shine a light along the surface to identify areas where the wall is sunken, and mark those spots with pencil as you go. Patience is key, but you must work efficiently so that the mixed compound does not dry out before you finish. Give yourself enough time to complete an entire section. Try not to stop in the middle of a surface, as blending a dried section with wet compound can be difficult. Do not try to rush the application by taking a larger scoop. This may make your arms tired, it may lead to compound falling off your skimmer, and you may need to go over the area later to remove excess compound. Smooth fiberglass repair tape onto cracks and joints. Let the surface set or dry out before you apply the next coat. If repair areas are deep/large, count on 24 coats to get solid repairs & smooth surfaces. Do not apply excess material or try to finish with one coatthis can only be fixed by demo or lots of sanding. It is better to do many thin coats than an uneven one that needs repair.
