INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A relationship is not one-sided, and you should never feel resentment for the things you do to be a good girlfriend. While not everyone can do all things equally, you should be on equal footing in your relationship. They should support you, and care for you, too! A lot of middle school relationships might start out with playful teasing as a form of flirtation, and that's okay. However, don't let innocent teasing become back-and-forth bullying. A relationship where two people are mostly mean to each other is not healthy. If your partner is mean to you on a regular basis, avoid being mean back and say something like, "If you don't stop saying those things to me, I'm not going to be your girlfriend or your friend anymore." If you want to break up with the person you're dating, it's better to tell them directly. Cheating on them to avoid having a hard conversation will come off as cowardly. And if they did something to make you mad, don't cheat on them in order to exact revengeit will only make you look bad! Even if they cheated on you (or threatened to), it's not okay to cheat on them! If you can't talk through your issues, it might be time to break up. Avoid saying mean things about people they care about because doing so might cause them to push you away. Be supportive of them and the people they love. And if you don't really like their friends, don't hang out with them and keep it to yourself. If they invite you to hang out with them and their friends and you're not sure whether you like them or not, give them a chance. Try to find something you have in common and go from there. If anyone they are close to (from their grandmother to another friend) is mean to you, feel free to share that with them. They might be able to talk to that person, or they might realize that someone they thought was a friend is not so nice. If other couples your age are doing physically intimate things you're not ready for, don't force yourself to do those things to fit in or "please" them. It will only cause you to feel resentful and lead to a sour breakup. If the person you're dating is pressuring you to have sex or take drugs, you should tell them honestly if you don't want to (if you're not ready or that's not something you're into). A good partner will understand and respect your decisions.

SUMMARY: Remember that you deserve all of these things from your partner, too! Don't be mean to the person you're dating. Don't cheat on them as a way to break up or make them mad. Don't criticize their friends and family. Don't give in to peer pressure to act a certain way or do certain things.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In this setting you are likely to have a handful of regulars you will personally get to know. The atmosphere is a "home away from home." Operating hours for these bars tend to be earlier than others, opening in the early morning and closing slightly earlier at night than others. These bars typically start with beers and wines on their serving lists first. Pay attention to this for licensing purposes. If demand for hard liquor is present, then getting the proper license to carry them should be pursued. Light food fare can be served at these locations such as sandwiches and/or appetizers, but full dinners are not frequently on the menu. This will mean avoiding the need for a costly full restaurant license. Some light gaming equipment is a good idea to have on the premises of such bars. Jukeboxes, pool tables, dart boards, arcade video games, and the like are good entertainment ideas. You might even consider building a few arcade cabinets for the video games. Typical neighborhood bars cost between $50,000 and $100,000 to start. These are similar to neighborhood bars, but tend to offer a bit more substantial food fare. The biggest difference is with entertainment as visual and audio options are significantly more important in sports bars. Investment in numerous televisions with cable and/or satellite channel packages will be a significant change for sports bars over other types. Maintaining the latest audio/visual technology can sometimes take a large portion of the bar's revenue. Food options tend to include burgers, chicken wings, ribs, pizza, grilled items, and appetizers. Extra gaming equipment isn't as important with sporting events being the main attraction. However, having some video games at the table, pool tables, or arcade games can be a nice addition. Thoroughly research the local sports team(s). You'll want plenty of authorized logos, posters, pictures, and other gear of theirs around your establishment. You might even consider contacting the team directly to see if joint-promotions are a possibility. The average sports bar can cost $10,000 to $50,000 to start. These are essentially "beer only" operations that tend to have lower costs due to easier licensing and simpler stocking conditions. Brew pubs create their own beer on their premises and sell it on tap. Other beer options may be offered in bottled form. There is the added cost of brewing equipment in this case. Beer bars sell a wide variety of beers on tap or bottled. This can include microbrews. However, since beer is typically consumed more often than other liquors, it is often easier to turn a profit especially with the lower licensing costs as you are not stocking hard liquors. Beer bars can cost as little as $20,000 to $100,000 to start depending on location. However, brew pubs can cost $100,000 to over $1 million to start due to the brewing equipment. These have a wide variety of types to choose from, but the bar you create must be narrow in focus once you build it. Still, there must also be flexibility within the theme you pick. Some specialty bars focus on a particular drink such as the martini. However, there are many versions of the martini that your bar would need to produce including the traditional version with vodka and gin or the sour apple variety. Specialty bars can be focused on wine. In cases such as wine bars, you will need to produce a wide selection of variety and vintage for patrons to enjoy. Bars like these can focus on other consumables like cigars. You will need to produce a wide variety of types and allow customers to learn about their qualities. Specialty bars tend to be smaller in size. Clientele will be more intimate and exclusive. Startup costs for these bars will vary greatly depending on your product choice. There are several types of clubs you could consider including small cocktail lounges, mid-sized clubs that double as neighborhood bars by day, and large dance clubs that attract celebrity guests. Cocktail lounges tend to have small musical entertainment such as a piano or jukebox. Mid-sized clubs, especially ones that are regular bars by day, often have area bands or other popular talents invited in by night. Large dance clubs need larger populations to be successful--perhaps a city of 500,000 people or more if you plan on attracting a major celebrity guest star.

SUMMARY:
Start a neighborhood bar. Create a sports bar. Operate a brewpub or beer bar. Start a specialty bar. Start a nightclub.
