Eliminate Emotions, And Give Logic A Chance:

Making permanent decisions based off of temporary emotions such as: anger, frustration, and disappointment can cause permanent damage--don't allow these emotions impart confusion, or allow them to have a massive, negative impact over your life; don’t permit that your bad mood ruin a good situation. 
Whether in an relationship or just in any situation, neither you nor your partner is perfect, nor any thing in life; however, do try and strive for excellence. Practice compassion with mistakes. Give them some cushion to mess up, learn from it, and improve in that area.
How will you ever experience the joy of making a good thing great if you aren’t patient enough to invest time towards having the real thing? Learn patience. In order to get the benefits you righteously deserve-one must wait the time, endure the pressure, and survive the struggle. If you’re one of those people who run with emotions, be prepared to live with regrets.
Think before you speak. Think before you act. Learn to keep your calm and think things thoroughly. No-one deserves the smooth sailing, easy, piece of cake days if you quit every time things get tough/rough.
It's easy to jump to conclusions and move with assumptions before you seek out the facts and/or truth. With the exception that some will give the absolute truth, and some will not. Some will be receptive to it and some will not. Either way, you’re never sure until you know, and you’ll never know until you ask, but if you’re too prideful to ask then be humble enough not to assume.
There is no perfect relationship/life but just because the situation isn’t perfect doesn’t mean it won’t be worth the wait and/or the effort. Seeds of faith can blossom into a beautiful garden full of genuine love when planted in the right soil, and solid grounds. Prepare the foundation before you begin to build; it takes time to build a firm foundation. What you put into your situation determines what you get out of that particular situation.
You can’t give a half and expect to get a whole. Always give your one hundred and ten percent; never lowering your expectations, never allow a person manipulate you to the point you risk your values, morals and standards. You are all you've got and that's everything; only you know what's good for you. Listen to your intuition; which tears down any and all emotional barriers. The wise live by faith, while fools rely on unrealistic truths.
In the event you're not up for the challenge, perhaps backing away from it will save you. Don't focus so much on the battle, however do put your energy on making it through the war. All in all, a battle is a battle, one doesn't weigh more than the other, people will be tried and tested, still suffer, and endure pain..
Remember: God is no respecter of persons; He will actually intervene in your life, help you, and fight your battles for you. There is nothing too impossible when you allow God to intervene and when you surrender all to Him, for He holds your world in His hands. Fret not, stay grounded, be humble, and be unwavering. If He got you out of that, He'll see you out of this.

Stop. Be still. Wait.

There's absolutely no pleasure when things don't turn out the way you had previously planned. And in some cases, you may find that it's actually for the best, surprisingly. When you get to a point where you're not sure how to proceed: Stop. Be still. Enter into the silence. Cease from all your restless thinking. Wait. Let the answer come in its time. Take the time to step back from your disappointment, reflect, re-connect with your passion, release all negativity, and replace all with positive energy. Rest assured that there will always be a positive, effective way to move past any adversity and a clear shot to move forward. Not everything is lost, because you still have the now, chance, ability and the desire/opportunity to make things right. Grasp, take hold of the fresh new opportunity, and run with it. Stop worrying about how others live their lives and focus on living yours, because you don't want to waste your constructive time, nor miss your blessings. If you're "still breathing" then you are most fortunate and are certainly given a fresh new opportunity to change and make things right. The time is now. It's never too late to turn things around.
