Article: Prioritize the kids above all else and set a goal that aligns with that.  People who want to get along typically do, so imagine yourself getting along and follow suit. As the person he intends to marry, it is your responsibility to care for his kids too in accordance with their biological mother.  If you see yourself being jealous, angry, and resentful, your relationship with his ex will mirror that. Take an hour and genuinely connect with her by telling her you love the kids and admiring her for the role she plays in their lives.  No you don’t have to be best friends, but building a rapport that is all your own will be beneficial to retaining a healthy dialogue between the both of you.  Find a common ground, which will more than likely be the kids. If that is the common ground, stick to conversation that revolves around that. It can be easy to feel like you should replace the children’s bio mom, especially if you feel that she is not doing an adequate job. Love her kids, but not so much that she feels insecure.  Try not to take over parenting decisions like when children should go to bed, curfews, who they can and cannot hang out with, what they can and cannot eat. Have respect for rules that are already set to avoid resentment between you and the ex-wife, instead to prevent the kids from becoming anxious. This can be what you contribute to the kids’ lives to make them easier and thereby, the ex-wife’s life easier.  If she’s good at being punctual, she might be the one who takes kids to their appointments. If you’re better at material things and appearance, you might be the one who takes them school shopping for clothes and shoes. Refrain from stepping on one another’s toes to ensure smooth relationships on all sides. Avoid unnecessary anger or resentment from your partner and arguments by expressing negative emotions and opinions to someone who is not your partner.  Do not insult the ex-wife in front of the kids. They will feel withdrawn from you because you are attacking their DNA by attacking their mother. They might also tell the ex-wife about what you said and it can cause problems between you and her and her and your partner.  If anyone vents, it should be your partner. Let him be the person who vents, not you. When you speak negatively about his ex, it is a reflection of him since marrying her was his choice, so refrain. Blending families for outings might not be your style, but it can be a great way to forge a union and a camaraderie between households.  Every week or two, invite the ex-wife over to family game nights or out to a family bowling event. The kids will foster a relationship with you knowing that accepting you won’t mean their mom feels loved any less.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before you begin negotiations, it’s important to know where each person stands on the issue. Try to see things from the other person’s point-of-view by stepping into their shoes. Envision what the experience is like for the other person and what may be driving their actions. Let’s say you want to go for a month long vacation during the summer, but your partner prefers to take smaller vacations throughout the year. Take a moment to consider their reasons. Perhaps it's harder for your partner to take the time off work needed for a month-long vacation, or perhaps they’d like to use part of their vacation time to visit family during the winter holidays. To better understand where the other person is coming from, you need to listen effectively. When the other person is speaking, really listen to them. If you can, make eye contact with the other person. Don't look at your phone, or fiddle with objects. If you lose track of what the other person has said, ask them to repeat it. You can say something like "Sorry, I was just so busy thinking about what you said that I didn't hear the last part. Could you repeat that?" Get a sense of what the other person wants out of the compromise. You can figure out their goals and make them feel heard by asking open-ended questions. Such questions allow the other person to expand on their ideas. Ask questions like, "Why do you feel that way about my suggestion?" and "How do you think we can meet in the middle on this issue?" The other person can’t read your mind, so you have to be willing to state your needs. Asserting your needs includes speaking clearly and succinctly rather than beating around the bush.  For example, you might tell your best friend, “I feel like we never spend time together anymore. Can we look at our schedules and try to find more time to hang out? I’d appreciate that.” Use “I” statements to help you speak about your perspective or feelings assertively without offending someone. For example, you might say, "When I get home from work, I often feel stressed when I see that the kitchen is still messy." There are some aspects of your life that aren’t up for negotiation. They are the issues you absolutely won’t concede on, such as your religion, values, or even sentimental items. Use  a calm voice and tact to explain your non-negotiables so that you don't seem rude or offensive.  If the other person tries to get you to compromise on a non-negotiable, communicate the boundary. Instead of shouting "I told you I'm not working this weekend!," you might say, “I’m afraid I can’t work this weekend. It’s my daughter’s birthday, and I don’t miss my kids' birthdays.”  Communicate clear boundaries to your boss, friends, and family. Enforcing these boundaries will help you establish what behaviors you will and will not tolerate.

SUMMARY: Step into the other person’s shoes. Listen actively by looking at the person and removing distractions. Ask open-ended questions. Communicate your needs  assertively. Be clear about your non-negotiables.

You can keep it in a ponytail or twist it into a bun, as both styles work well in a quiff. If you don't have bangs, pull up a bit of the hair near your forehead, taking it out of the ponytail. Hold hair up straight and comb from the ends down to the roots. This adds the volume you need to do a quiff. Keep it twisted so it has volume. Apply either hairspray or a bit of water. It should look like a stylish bump on the top of your head. Be careful not to overdo it. A quiff should not be too thick or too thin, so ensure it is back combed properly.
