Q: This is a serious issue that you shouldn’t have to hide from anyone. You won't get in trouble for informing others about how you are getting mistreated. You can also choose to walk away, and protect yourself if the bully is physically harming you.  Talk to a guidance counselor or discipline officer at your school. Tell them how you feel and what has been done/said to you or about you. Stand up for yourself. Don't let others push you around. Nobody can tell you who you are; that’s for only you to decide. This includes cyberbullying. If you are being bullied over social media or via texting, direct messaging, emails with things like threats, pictures, spreading rumors, or verbal attacks, it's important that you talk to someone.  Cyberbullying can be especially harmful because it can be done at any time, from almost anywhere. It can sometimes be difficult to track who is behind the bullying and undo damage done by images or messages once they have begun circulating. If you keep fighting with some friends, or other friends keep asking to copy your homework, decide if these are friends you want in your life. Choose to keep the friends that care about you and that you care about back. The people that use you or pretend to be your friends? Forget them. It can be hard to let friends go, but prioritize your happiness. If people contribute to your unhappiness, let them go. Drama can be fun, but it can also be very damaging. Don’t ever spread rumors about somebody. Think about how you would feel if people were spreading rumors about you. Don’t get involved with drama, and don’t participate in other people’s drama. If someone spreads rumors about you, tell an adult and speak up for yourself. Nobody has the right to treat you disrespectfully.  Remember that bullying and spreading rumors can have devastating consequences for the person being bullied and to those participating in the bullying. If two of your friends are fighting, tell them that the fight is between them, and you refuse to choose sides. Make sure your social relationships don’t take over all of your time, and remember to devote some energy to school and learning. Especially if you have career or college goals, don’t lose sight of doing well in school. Devote some time for homework and classwork and have an attitude of success. If friends hassle you for staying in to finish homework, don’t feel bad. Sometimes you have to work, and other times you can play. Promise to meet up with them for the weekend. Fights are normal in romantic relationships, but they shouldn’t happen more often than not. If you find your romantic relationship takes up all of your energy, or you are constantly trying to make things better with a partner while your partner expects you to always apologize without taking responsibility, reconsider this relationship. A partner should add to your life, not take away from it.  Don’t be with a romantic partner that is constantly jealous. Run as fast as you can if your partner begins to talk down to you, say you are worthless, or criticize your looks or appearance. Run even faster if your partner becomes violent with you by pushing, shoving, or violently threatening you. If your partner humiliates you, isolates you, or intimidates you, leave. This is abuse and cannot be tolerated.
A: Tell someone if you’re being threatened or bullied. Stick with your true friends. Disengage from drama. Prioritize your time. Reconsider any romantic relationships that are constantly up and down.

Article: Notice when she acts strange or distant. Is it when you start talking about the new girl in class? Maybe she’s jealous. Or does she sigh every time you say you’re playing video games? Maybe she wishes you’d spend more time with her. Analyze the signals to see if you can uncover the issue.  Listen to the tone in her voice or any changes in how she communicates with you. For example, if she usually texts you back right away but doesn’t respond to messages whenever you mention meeting her mom, maybe you need to slow down the pace. Additionally, watch her nonverbal cues to help you understand what she's feeling. For example, she may be pulling away from you and refusing to make eye contact if she's upset. Do not ask her friends if they know what's wrong. It could backfire if they tell her and she interprets it as you going behind her back! Figure out when she has a chunk of time available, preferably at least 30 minutes so you don’t feel rushed. Ask if you can get together to talk somewhere that you won’t be interrupted or overheard, like at the park or in your living room. For example, call her and say, “Hi Ally. Do you think you could come over to my house tomorrow after school for like an hour?” Though you may feel awkward or nervous, it’s best not to beat around the bush. Tell your girlfriend that you’re worried you’re going to lose her or that it feels like something about your relationship has changed. Be as specific as possible, but try not to blame her. You could say, “I feel some distance in our relationship and it worries me. Have I done something to upset you?” or “Has something been bothering you lately?” Don't say things like "you always do this" or "you never do this." Shifting the blame may make her feel defensive, which can make it harder to work out the problem. Instead, give her examples of what you're talking about. Say, "I noticed that you've been really quiet the last few times that we've hung out. Is something wrong?" or “I feel like you’re not that into me anymore. Have your feelings changed?” Sit in a relaxed position with your arms uncrossed and your body relaxed so she feels comfortable. Maintain eye contact to convey that you're listening and that you're interested.  You can also lean in slightly or hold her hand to show you're completely focused on her. Avoid negative signals, like looking away, pursing your lips, or furrowing your brow. Even if she starts accusing you or if she says the problem is your fault, let her talk and get it out. Don't become defensive. Sit and listen to her and try to put yourself in her shoes so you can understand where she’s coming from. If you don't understand why she’s upset or if you aren't sure what she expects from you, ask! Be open and honest while you talk and ask her to do the same. You can also ask questions to show her that you’re listening. For instance if she says, "I'm just a little frustrated because we never get to spend time alone," you could respond with, "I didn’t realize it bothered you that we do stuff with our friends so often. Do you want to set aside a few nights a week just for us?"
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Pay attention to her behavior to figure out what’s bothering her. Find a time and place for the two of you to talk privately. Address the issue directly. Use "I" statements and specific examples to keep the focus on the issue. Maintain open and friendly body language so she doesn't feel attacked. Be a good listener by allowing her to share her feelings. Ask questions if you need clarification or don’t understand her point of view.

Q: You will need a flat spot; ideally, your beacon will be close to your home. Place three rows of three blocks to create a three-by-three, nine-block total base. Select the beacon unit, then select the middle iron block. The beacon should light up almost immediately. If you want to increase the beacon's power, you can add a five-by-five, 25-block base directly below the three-by-three one.  You can add a seven-by-seven, 49-block base below the five-by-five, and you can add a nine-by-nine, 81-block base below the seven by seven. Your beacon can't have a base larger than nine blocks by nine blocks.
A:
Find a place to put your beacon. Place the iron blocks on the ground. Place your beacon unit. Consider adding more layers to the unit.
