Article: Once you find out your partner is married, you may not be prepared to be with them moving forward. Be honest about how you are feeling and acknowledge the reality of the situation. You may not feel you can trust your partner anymore and do not feel emotionally prepared to be with a married partner. Discuss how you are feeling with your partner so they know where you’re at. Use “I” statements when you do this. For example, you may tell your partner, “I can't handle being with someone who is married,” or, “I feel as though the trust between us has been broken.” Let your partner know that your relationship is over. Be as gentle and firm as you can, as you do not want to give your partner false hope about the situation. If your partner tries to convince you that you can still be together, remind them about how you feel and what you want. If you do not want to be with a married partner, be clear about this.  For example, you may tell your partner, “I do not want to be with a married partner. I think we need to separate,” or, “I am no longer comfortable in this relationship. I think we need to end it.” It is fair to give the other person time to tell you why they think you should stay in a relationship, but don't let them go on and on. Once they've said their piece, move on and do not engage in further discussion on the matter, even if they pressure you. Let your partner know that you will need some time apart from each other. Be clear about keeping your distance from each other. Tell your partner that you will decide when and if you will speak to each other again. For example, you may tell your partner, "We need space away from each other. I will let you know if and when we can talk again. I need time away from you." Once you and your partner separate, keep your distance from them. Agree not to contact each other for awhile and give each other space. Remove the person from your social media and do not respond to their calls or messages.  If you see the person on a daily basis at work or school, agree to keep your distance and not talk or interact when you can avoid it. Doing this will allow you both the time you need to move on from the relationship. Remember that it is nearly impossible to immediately transition from being partners to being friends. While you may decide to be friends eventually, it is essential that you keep your distance and do not contact each other. You need time to heal and resolve your feelings, which may allow you to change the dynamic of the relationship to one of friendship. You may also be tempted to jump into another relationship to try and forget about this person. Try to avoid this, instead allowing yourself time to heal on your own.

Article: . Make a happy face in the direction of your teacher. It will help make you seem friendlier and more interested in what the teacher is saying. People respond well to smiles and other pleasant expressions. This is a simple tool, but it can be crucial to maintaining a good relationship. Just be careful not to spend too much time smiling at the teacher. You also should be looking at the board or taking notes. Otherwise, it looks like you aren’t paying attention. Most teachers can tell from the front of the room who is interested and paying attention. Teachers put a lot of effort into creating a class, and they like the reward of seeing people respond to it.  The best way to look interested is to keep your eyes forward, and take notes or write down things your teacher says. If you are looking somewhere else, or just staring without writing things down, your teacher won’t believe you are interested. As an added bonus, you will probably paying attention to the class. This not only means you will do better, but you will also be more likely to find out things your teacher likes. Teachers like it when students are involved and participate in class. If your teacher asks the class a question, be the first one to raise your hand. In most cases, it won’t matter if you’re wrong, as your teachers will appreciate the effort.  Wait for your teacher to finish asking the question before raising your hand. That will prove you are listening to the question, and will be ready to give a good effort. Just be sure you are trying to give a serious answer, and not making a joke. Teachers don’t like that at all. Like many other people, teachers have an unconscious bias towards people that look and act like them. If your teacher can believe you are like her in many ways, she will think better of you, and might be more lenient in grades. This is less true for a subject like math, where this is a right answer, but if you need to show your work the teacher might be more willing to give partial credit.  This doesn’t have to be related to the stuff you are learning about in class. If your teacher says she likes something, like a type of music or food, then tell her that you like it too. Adding something quick like “I love that song” or “Chinese food is my favorite” during class in response to her mentioning something is good enough. Just be careful not to tell your teacher that you like what she likes every time she mentions something. It will make your sucking up obvious, which won’t help. You can also mention it to your teacher after class, and maybe ask for more information. For example, if your teacher likes a certain type of food, ask what her favorite restaurant is, and tell her that you’d like to try it with your parents. Another way to mimic the teacher is to copy the way she dresses. Look at the particular way your teacher dresses, or if she likes to wear a certain color. If there is something you can copy, wear it when you can. You won’t have to say anything, as the teacher will probably notice the similarity subconsciously. If the teacher needs something done, be the one to do it. Your teacher will notice and appreciate that you want to make her life easier.  Your help doesn’t need to be big. It could be helping to set up for a project, or running a book to the library. Of course, if your teacher asks you to do something directly, do it with a smile and without complaining. Watch your teacher as well, and wait for moments when she might need help. If it seems like she is having trouble doing things in the class, or could use an extra pair of hands, ask if you can help. Even if she doesn’t need it, she will appreciate that you were willing to offer. If your teacher is having a debate in class, either as part of the lesson or because another student disagrees with him, figure out what he believes and repeat that argument. If the teacher is arguing with another student, and not as part of the lesson, don’t jump in during class. Instead, wait until afterward and tell the teacher you agreed with him. Or, if the teacher was dealing with a disruptive student, thank him for stopping it. Something simple like “Thank you for making Billy be quiet, I was having trouble concentrating” will be enough. Teachers like to feel appreciated, and believe they are doing the right thing.
