Though you may want to delete everything your ex has sent you, you should save the abusive texts, e-mails, and other communications. Take a screenshot of things that may be deleted, like social media status updates, chats, pictures, or comments to other people.  When taking a screenshot, note the date and time of the message for your records. These records can serve as evidence of their abusive behavior if they deny everything or try to lie about you. Contact the police department and ask them about the types of information you should keep in order to prove the harassment. Make sure you let the people you trust know about your ex's behavior. This may include family, friends, or colleagues. It's important that they know to be careful about how they interact with you digitally. They also may be able to offer you help, support, and advice.  Tell your friends and family, "My ex has been digitally abusing me. This is very serious, and I would appreciate you not interacting with them online or posting about me when we are out. This is for my safety." Tell your friends and family not to respond to your ex if they contact them. If your ex sends them threatening messages, tell them to save a record of them. Most social media sites have terms of service that cover abusive content online. If your ex is posting abusive content about you, report the abuse to the site. You will have to attach a link or an image of the abusive content.  For example, Facebook has guidelines against people threatening, bullying, or harassing members. If your ex sends you threats, compromises your privacy, blackmails you, or harasses you by sending you too many messages, you can report that to Facebook.  The website may not remove your ex, but they will be aware of the abusive behavior in case it happens again.

summary: Keep records of abusive messages. Let others know about your ex's behavior. Report your ex to the social media site.

A healthy relationship requires healthy communication. If you're only really communicating when you argue, you're not building a strong foundation for your relationship.  Tell your spouse that you love them and care about them. You don't need any special occasion to do this - you can do it every day if you're comfortable doing so. Let your partner know when they've done something that makes you happy and thank them for it. For example, you might say, "I really appreciate the way you've been inviting me to more social events. It means a lot to me, so thank you." Show gratitude for the little acts of kindness your spouse does for you every day. Even small and simple things like sharing household chores or picking up after you when you're busy or not feeling well deserve acknowledgment. If your spouse said or did something that seriously upset you, offended you, or threatened the stability of your marriage, you should have a serious talk about the incident. However, if your spouse says something in passing that rubs you the wrong way, it's probably not worth starting an argument over.  Learn to give your spouse the benefit of the doubt. For example, if you've been married for several years and your spouse has never criticized you over something before, they probably didn't mean to do so now. Focus on the kind, caring things your partner says and does every day. It's probably safe to assume that those acts of kindness outweigh this one word or action that you didn't like. Never criticize your spouse. You can criticize actions or words if you can do so respectfully, but tearing down your partner is not a healthy way to communicate. One way to build a stronger foundation for your relationship is to bond over shared interests. This can help remind you that your partner cares about you, which may help you give them the benefit of the doubt when an argument does pop up.  Take an interest in your spouse's hobbies. You can also invite your spouse to join you at something you enjoy. Try taking up a new hobby together - something that you can both learn and explore together. It's normal for relationships to change and evolve over time. This happens because you and your partner are changing and evolving, and you should be growing together instead of separately or apart. As this happens, you may find it comforting to check in with your spouse on the status of things.  Ask your spouse about any changes in goals or expectations for one another and for the relationship. You can also check in by saying something like, "I'm sorry I overreacted last week. I feel like things are back to normal, but I wanted to make sure you feel like everything is okay with us after that fight we had." You may only need to check in on goals or expectations once or twice a year, though some couples may need to do this more often. You should only need to check on the status of your relationship after really big arguments. If the level of communication between you and your spouse has deteriorated or is consistently negative, you may need the help of a marriage counselor. A marriage counselor can help you develop better communication skills and work through difficult periods in your marriage. You can find a marriage counselor in your area by searching online or asking your doctor for a recommendation.  Never feel embarrassed or frustrated over needing the help of a marriage counselor. Not getting professional help would likely cause your relationship to continue to deteriorate. Make sure your counselor is a licensed therapist with training that specifically deals with marital therapy. You should also make sure the therapist is committed to finding real solutions, rather than just encouraging a separation.  It's important to have a clear idea of what you hope to accomplish with the help of a marriage counselor. You'll need to work on the issues at home between sessions, which is where most of the healing and repair will take place.  Be honest and open during counseling. This should be a time and place where you and your spouse can calmly and respectfully air your grievances and find ways to work through them.

summary: Share positive, loving feelings. Choose your battles. Enjoy your time together. Check in from time to time. Seek counseling as needed.

To make sure your holes are aligned when you're drilling, use a framing square as a guide. You'll want to clamp the framing square to the table of the drill press. Then when you're drilling, you can move the block of wood along the edge of the framing square to make sure the holes are lined up with each other. To get clean holes with minimum tear-out, use a high-quality 1/8" brad-point bit. These can be found at hardware stores. Set the drill to its highest speed. Place the wood block against the framing square so that the drill bit is lined up with one of the holes on the outer most row.
summary: Prepare a clamp. Prep the drill.
