Summarize the following:
If the two of you have already become physically intimate, this is less of a concern. But if you are on a first date or taking things slowly, respect her personal space and body. Don't spoil the mood by rushing or forcing physical contact. Wait until the two of you have both grown comfortable with small touches before suggesting something as involved as braiding her hair. How long this takes will depend on the woman in question. She may welcome physical signs of affection right away, or she may need several dates before she feels like she can trust you. However long it takes, don't force the issue. Rushing physical intimacy before she's ready is self-defeating. Asking her if she'd like you to braid her hair will probably come across as a weird idea if the two of you haven't made any sort of physical contact, so set some precedent. When you're with her, touch her "by chance" or with polite, innocent gestures. Use these moments to judge how comfortable she feels with you. For example, you could: Share an armrest with her in a movie theater so your arms rest against each other. Tap her arm to direct her attention to something you're pointing out. Lightly touch her shoulder to announce your presence if she doesn't see you coming. When you start off making small incidental touches, aim for parts of her body that aren't too personal, like her hand, arm, or back. Of course, you're not entitled to touch any part of her unless she's okay with it, but consider these areas as an innocent place to start trying. As long as she's fine with it, continue finding excuses to make contact there so she grows accustomed to it without feeling threatened, like: Emphasizing a point you're making in your conversation by touching her hand. Guiding her through doors with your hand in the small of her back. Cupping her elbow to let her know you're about to turn left or right as you walk together. Make physicality a part of your date right from the get-go. Don't put if off, because this will only build it up into something "big" that will feel more awkward once you do start trying. Start testing the waters at the very start of your first date so touching each other feels perfectly natural. Briefly take her hand between yours as part of your greeting. Guide her by the elbow for a moment once you start walking. Offer your hand to help her out of the car.

summary: Ease into it. Start with small touches. Stick to neutral areas at first. Start early.

Search online and in leatherworking books for your favorite wallet pattern, then print it out to scale. Or devise your own simple pattern with a few simple rectangles, drawn out in pencil on cardstock or kraft paper. Label each piece and then cut them out of cardstock or craft paper. If you're creating your own pattern, the main wallet body piece should be roughly 11in (28cm) long by 7.5in (19cm) wide. This main piece will also have 2 snap tabs for closures. Each tab will be a square measuring 2in (5.1cm) on all sides. Draw these squares on the left side of the wallet body piece, about 0.5in (1.3cm) from the top and bottom with about 2.5in (6.4cm) of space in between them. Each card pocket piece should measure about 4in (10cm) long by 2in (5.1cm) wide. Make between 1 and 3 card pockets for the right side of your wallet. If you're adding a change pocket, make this pattern piece about 3in (7.6cm) by 3in (7.6cm).

summary: Cut out a paper pattern for your wallet.

It's important that you continue making your existing payments as you complete the consolidation process. Until you've been informed that your loans have been paid off and your consolidation loan has taken effect, you are legally required to make those payments. Most federal student loans do qualify, but it's important to make sure that all of your individual loans will be included. The following loans qualify: Direct Subsidized Stafford Loans Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loans Direct PLUS Loans PLUS loans from the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program Supplemental Loans for Students Federal Perkins Loans Federal Nursing Loans Health Education Assistance Loans Go to https://studentloans.gov/myDirectLoan/index.action. The application process is simple, since the Department of Education will already have all of your personal information and records of all your federal loans. Again, you should avoid consolidating your federal loans through private lenders. If you do not stay with the Department of Education, you'll lose access to many resources and benefits, and you will probably pay more. Once you've completed the application process, the Department of Education will provide you with a summary sheet, which lists all of the loans you are consolidating. Review this document carefully. If everything looks correct, you don't need to do anything. After fifteen days, the Department of Education will process your loan. If anything looks amiss if the numbers are off, or if any of your federal loans aren't included contact the Department of Education within fifteen days of the date on the summary sheet. Once your consolidation loan is approved, you must choose a repayment plan. If any of your loans were in default, you'll choose one of the three income-based options either IBR, Pay-As-You-Earn, or ICR. If none of your loans were in default, you can choose any of these six plans: Standard Repayment. You'll make regular payments that are calculated so that your loan will be paid off within ten years. Many people who consolidate find that they cannot afford the standard plan, but if you can, it's the most cost-effective option. Graduated Repayment. You'll make payments that start out low and increase every two years, so that you pay the entire balance in ten years. If you don't make much money but expect your income to increase regularly with time, this is a solid, cost-effective option. Extended Repayment Plan. You'll make lower payments, but you'll continue making them for 25 years. This option is only available if your loan amounts to more than $30,000. Income-Based Repayment (IBR). You'll make payments for twenty-five years, and after that, any remaining debt will be forgiven. Your payments will not exceed 15% of your discretionary income. Pay-As-You-Earn Repayment. You'll make payments for twenty years, and after that, any remaining debt will be forgiven. As with IBR, your payments will not exceed 15% of your discretionary income. Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR). You'll make payments for twenty-five years, and after that, any remaining debt will be forgiven. Your payments will not exceed 20% of your discretionary income. Now that your federal loans have been consolidated, it's important not to neglect your payments. If you go into default, your credit rating will suffer, and you'll lose your access to further federal student aid in short, you'll reverse the positive effects of your consolidation.
summary: Continue making your payments. Determine whether your loans qualify for consolidation. Apply online. Read your summary sheet carefully. Make arrangements for repayment. Make your payments as required.
