Problem: Article: Part of being in love means being completely open to the other person. If you find yourself seeing a whole different side that the person doesn't show the public, then that may be love. For instance, if your partner is pretty serious or polite in public, but shows a more goofy and silly side when you're alone, then they are really opening up to you and loves you. If the person shares their deepest emotions with you and is comfortable with it, then that could be love. If the person is comfortable not looking perfect, tripping, or having food stuck in their teeth around you, that means they are okay if you see every side of them. This should be true even during a bad day. If your loved one has had a very bad day but lights up when they see you, then that's a sign of love. If they are in love with you, then the sight of you or the sound of your voice is guaranteed to make them feel better if only a little bit. The next time they're grumpy or have a bad day, see how they react in your presence. Though this may be silly, check out your loved one's face the next time you see them. Do they look at you in a goofy, watery, silly and adorable way that can only be described as "googly-eyed"? You will know it when you see it. You won't get this look all the time you can spot it in the morning, or randomly across the dinner table. You may also be able to catch the person staring at you with the same expression. Love makes people feel giddy, weightless, and like laughing for no reason at all. If you see the person acting this way in your presence, then this may be love. Does your loved one seem hyper, excited, and on the verge of laughing for almost no reason at all whenever they are around you? If so, then this may be love. If you've said something barely funny and the person cracks up, then they may be lovesick. If the person shows nervous energy or fidgets around a lot around you, then they may just be excited by your presence. If you are suffering unbelievable emotional pain or are just bummed because you have the flu, then this should rub off on the person who loves you. If they truly love you, then they'll absorb some of your negative emotions and will be very upset because they'll want you to feel better as soon as you can. Though they don't have to be as upset as you are, the person should clearly be affected by your mood because all they want is for you to be happy.
Summary: See if the person can act naturally around you. Gauge if the person is happy to be around you. Notice if the person gives you googly eyes. See if the person is giddy around you. Ask yourself if the person is upset when you are.

Problem: Article: In all relationships, communication is key. Many fights and misunderstandings stem from a lack of communication. Going forward, it's important to be 100% honest about your actions and feelings in your friendship. If an issue arises in the future, make it clear that you'd like to resolve those issues by talking with each other instead of talking to other people or doing something that either of you may regret. Bring issues up immediately instead of bottling up your feelings. When we suppress feelings and emotions, we are more likely to boil over and say or do something we regret. If a problem arises, address it right away. It is important to know what you and your friend expect out of a friendship in order for it to work. For example, you may deal with situations differently, or some things may bother you more than others. This is why you must establish expectations. Tell your friend what you need from them in a friendship. Being honest will help your friend to better meet your needs. Explain to your friend what you need from them using the "I-message" formula: "I feel _____ when you _______ and I need for you to _______." Refrain from assigning blame to your friend, though. Ask your friend what they need from you in a friendship. Again, friendship is a two-way street. Therefore, you need to meet your friends needs as well. Ask them to be honest about how you can be a better friend to them. Be ready to meet both needs. Resolution begins when you start understanding each other and the situation. As you hear similar needs from each other, the differences are put aside and you are able to work things through. It's impossible to move forward if you are unable to forgive. Holding onto anger or grudges isn't healthy for you and will ruin any chance you have of a real friendship. It takes a lot of strength to forgive, but it will help you grow as a person and as a friend. Tell your friend that you forgive them it is an important factor in rebuilding trust for both of you. It will mean a lot to your friend to hear that you forgive them, and saying "I forgive you" will help you move on from the situation. If you cannot forgive this person for their actions, you cannot be friends with him or her. Trying to have a relationship with someone you hold anger towards isn't healthy for you or for them. Life is too short to hold grudges.
Summary: Improve communication with your friend. Establish expectations for your friendship. Be willing to forgive.

Problem: Article: Adults should be getting 1,000 mg of calcium every day. Calcium is the most important mineral for maintaining bone health, because bones use calcium to remain strong and prevent bones from becoming brittle. Men over 50 and women over 70 need more calcium 1,200 mg per day. Foods high in calcium include dairy products, broccoli, salmon, leafy green vegetables, soy products, and cheese. You should not consume more than 2000 mg of calcium a day. Side effects of calcium supplementation include constipation, indigestion, and increased risk of kidney stones. Scientists are still figuring out how much vitamin D is optimal in a diet, but you should get at least 600 international units per day. Healthy teens and adults can have up to 4,000 IU per day. The main way to do this is by getting sunlight. If you cannot get sunlight, talk to your doctor about other ways to get vitamin D. The use of vitamin D supplements is controversial, so your doctor may offer specific advice. This doesn't mean tanning, which is quite unhealthy for your skin and can cause cancer. It only takes a short time to get enough vitamin D as little as 15 minutes depending on your skin type and where you live. A healthy diet includes a balance of lean protein, whole grains, and fruits and vegetables. Trace amounts of these elements have been shown to be prevalent in bones. There are foods you can eat to increase your levels of manganese, zinc, and copper. Foods high in manganese include nuts, shellfish, dark chocolate, soybeans, and sunflower seeds. Beef, shellfish, and peanuts are foods that are high in zinc. Copper is prevalent in foods like calamari, lobster, sun dried tomatoes, and oysters. The body needs to remain hydrated to be healthy. Hydration benefits your entire body, especially your organs and joints, and has been shown to reduce the risk of osteoporosis. The amount of fluids you need is based on various factors, but women should generally have nine cups per day, and men 13. Having at least eight on any given day is good, but try for more. Salt, soda, carbonated drinks, caffeine, and hydrogenated oils should be consumed in moderation. They are known to diminish calcium content in bones. They have numerous other drawbacks for your health, so it is best to avoid them in most situations. You should be consuming a maximum of 5,000 IUs (international units) of Vitamin A per day. To avoid consuming too much Vitamin A, eat fewer eggs or egg whites only, switch to non-fat or low-fat dairy products and check the concentration of Vitamin A in your multivitamin supplements. This compound is important to bone growth, but too much actually contributes to bone loss. Teenage and adult males should get about 3,000 IU of Vitamin D, and teenage and adult females around 2,310. For your reference, an ounce of cheddar cheese contains about 300 IU of Vitamin A, and a cup of whole milk 500.
Summary:
Consume foods and drinks high in calcium. Get plenty of vitamin D. Eat a healthy diet rich in manganese, zinc, and copper. Drink at least eight glasses of clean water every day. Avoid excessive amounts of harmful substances. Consume the right amount of Vitamin A.
