Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Recognize that it's okay to say no. Stop feeling guilty. Trust your gut. Don't apologize.

Answer: No one enjoys hurting another person, but turning someone down doesn't make you a jerk or a bad person. It's completely normal and okay for you to say no. If you aren't attracted to someone in that way, you can't help that. Saying anything other than "no" is disrespectful to both of you. You aren't obligated to please everyone, and you should never agree to date someone because you feel guilty. Respect your own feelings about the situation and don't question yourself. Expressing guilt openly can really confuse the other person. If you are giving them an honest answer, apologies aren't necessary. Maybe you aren't even sure why you are turning the person down, you just have a bad feeling about it or them. Trust that feeling. If something feels weird or off, it probably is. It's okay to say no and you have absolutely nothing to apologize for. You may even genuinely feel sorry, but expressing that out loud translates as pity and that you've somehow done something wrong by turning them down.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Sit next to your crush. Initiate conversations with your crush. Start conversations with school-related topics. Be kind to your crush. Greet them. Connect on social media. Flirt. Understand that your crush is human.

Answer: It not only captures their attention but also makes it easier for you to start a conversation. You may also have a higher chance of being paired up together, and you can discuss assignments and tests with them. You'll also be able to comment on what they say without looking weird. There are a variety of different topics that you can talk about, but you can mostly focus on the ones that your crush is interested in. Try to come up with a new subject every time you talk to them. That way, they'll see you as an interesting, fun person and perhaps look forward to your conversations. You could also try asking them for help with a task, even if you don't need assistance. As long as it's believable, it should work as long as you don't do this too frequently. However, be sure that you show that you're intelligent. For instance, if you're a math whiz, don't ask your crush questions related to math. You could also your crush about an assignment, which may open the way up to other subjects. Even if you're not in the same class, ask your crush about their lessons or what homework they have. However, be sure to talk about other topics so that you don't exhaust the current one. In order to show them that you care, lend them pencils, paper, or any other supplies that they may need. Allow them to cry on your shoulder if something bad happens to them, and show them that you are a kind person. Be sure that you don't overdo it; otherwise, they may take advantage of your generosity. A simple "hello" might lead to a conversation. Even if you don't have time to talk to them, quickly greet them to show that you're thinking of them. It may also grab their attention and cause them to think of you. Add your crush to Facebook or other social networks you're both on. This is especially recommended if you both have mutual friends. This can lead the way to conversations outside of school, and you may be invited to events. Now that you're talking to your crush, subtly flirt with them. This will help you get a sense of how interested they are in you, and you'll also show that you're attracted to them. If you get a positive response, continue flirting a bit and slowly increase it. However, if you feel that they aren't interested, tone it down a bit. Although you may be attracted to them, you need to focus on your own life. They are just a person, and if they don't show interest, move on. No person is worth that much effort.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Pick the frame. Buy a lightweight fork. Pick road bike tires.

Answer: Whether it's a used one online or a new frame from a bike shop you can swap out your frame for something a little more conducive to the speeds of the road like a carbon or aluminum frame that brings durability and lightweight. You'll want something light but the size of the frame is most often based on your height and weight. The weight to shoot for the entire bike itself is under 20 lbs and the frames can make up a lot of weight. You'll want to consult someone from your local bike shop if you have any concern about your weight and the durability of a frame. Your bikes tires and frame are connected using a fork. Buy one made of carbon to give you that lightweight a road bike needs. Road tires are pretty narrow and are not built to withstand the bumps and rough terrain of mountain bikes. You'll want a road touring or racing tire. There should be a number on the tires to indicate the size. You'll want something that is a 700 width and should read something like 700x23. The first number is outer diameter of the tire in millimeters and the second number is the actual width of tire itself in millimeters. Most road bikes use inflatable tubes and the tube can be replaced if your bike requires it in the future.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Open your book. Check the thickness of the paper. Get a book repair knife. Hold the knife in your dominant hand. Begin scratching. Use an eraser to remove remnants of the ink. Touch up the area.

Answer:
Turn it to the desired page. Make the page as flat as you safely can get it. Avoid cracking the spine. Make sure the page is at least as thick as the pages at the beginning and end of a typical library book. You can use this method on white or colored paper. You could also do this on the inside cover of the book. For extra protection, it might help to place several sheets of scrap paper under the page you're working on. If the page is thin like computer paper or notebook paper, use an eraser or sandpaper instead. You can find these in specialty craft stores or online. Look for a blade that's completely flat on one side with a deep bevel on the other. This will remove the ink stamp while protecting the page from damage. Don't use an X-Acto knife or butter knife. It will remove the stamp, but it will also damage the page. Position it the same way you would hold a pen or pencil. Place your grip towards the bottom of the blade. You can position the blade vertically, horizontally, or at an angle. Start with a letter or small design element in the stamp. Gently follow the shape of the letter or element as you scratch. Move in a back-and-forth motion with the tip of the blade. Be patient. This method can be time-consuming, but you will get professional results. For example, if you're removing a capital L, move the blade vertically on the long stem and horizontally on the shorter stem. As the letters or lines begin to lighten, try to erase them. Erase gently. Move in a regular motion as if you were erasing pencil marks. This will prevent damage that could come from additional scratching. Continue the process. Keep scratching out individual letters or design elements with the knife. As they lighten, you can use the eraser to remove what remains. When all marks are gone, touch up the formerly stamped area with the eraser. Use quick, yet gentle, strokes. Brush away any residual debris with the back of your hand.
