Neutralize bleach's base chemical make-up with foods high in natural acids. Combining an edible liquid acid with bleach is a great way to even out the overall pH and eliminate that unpleasant odor. Use any one of the following foods to neutralize the bleach:  Lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit juice (also lime – any citrus fruit, really) Tomatoes (tomato sauce, puree, or paste work as well) Rub it in well. It's best to do this for at least a minute as it gives you time to make sure you've covered everything. This also allows the liquid to soak in and neutralize the bleach. Voila! The smell will hopefully be gone. If washing your hands doesn't work, or you don't wish to use straight liquid on your hands, dilute these acidic foods 1:1 with water. Then let your hands soak in this mixture for 2-3 minutes. Combining a food that is both dry and high in acid content with bleach is a great way to even out the overall pH and eliminate that unpleasant odor as well. Use one of these dry acids as a rub to neutralize the base:  Baking soda Coffee grounds Take the rub of your choice and do just that: rub it all over your hands. Take your time and rub it in well, much like an exfoliant scrub. Do this for one minute. Wipe off the excess into a trashcan and rinse with hot water. This will allow the rub to penetrate deeply into your pores. If you don't like the smell of coffee, of course, opt for using baking soda.

Hold the other person’s gaze for a few seconds before looking away, smiling while doing so. The eyes tell a lot about how another person feels, so if you’re gazing at the other person affectionately, they’re likely to notice you’re flirting.  If someone you’re trying to flirt with looks at you, hold their eye contact for roughly 3 seconds before smiling and looking away. Maintain eye contact while you’re in a conversation with the other person to show that you’re interested. This is a simple way to show someone how you feel while also making you look more attractive. Smile and laugh during appropriate times, like if the other person makes a funny comment. Smiling is a good way to encourage the other person to keep talking, showing that you’re interested in what they have to say. Smile at the other person if they're talking to you, or even give them a small smile from across the room to get their attention. This should be done subtly. You might rest your fingers near your lips while sitting across from someone at dinner, or use a couple fingers to touch your mouth for just a second while someone else is talking.  Try to only touch your mouth when the other person is talking to show that you’re listening intently. Touching your mouth while you’re talking will cover up your mouth, making it harder for the other person to hear what you’re saying. Rest your head lightly on your hand while sitting so you can easily place your fingers near your mouth. Touching your own neck lightly while talking can give off flirtatious vibes too. You can do things like twirling your hair or tossing it from your shoulders if it’s long, or run your hands through your hair if it’s shorter. Drawing attention to your hair is a seductive move that shows your interest in the other person.  Flip your hair from your shoulders using your hand to reveal a little bit of skin. Run your hand through your hair once or twice while talking to the other person. Try not to play with your hair the entire time you’re interacting, as this can be distracting. Like most other forms of physical flirtation, this should be done lightly as opposed to aggressively. When you’re talking to the other person, bite a side of your lip gently, or wet your lips slightly while listening to draw attention to your mouth. You might bite your lip gently while thinking about the answer to a question someone just asked you, or lick your lips when you’re standing close to the other person and want to hint that you like them.

If you’ve decided to forgive and move forward, one of the best ways to let go of resentment, anger and suspicion is to remind yourself of all of the wonderful things this person brings to your life. There's probably a reason — hopefully a lot of reasons — why you stayed in the relationship. Think about those as you begin to let the other person in. It's hard to do, and it's not necessarily expected of you, but it will help save the relationship if that's what you want to do. Try to imagine what drove the person to betray you, indirectly or directly. Try to think about how the person feels at this very moment. You shouldn't make any decisions just because you pity someone, but showing empathy is an olive branch that will mean a lot to the other person. Be clear about your feelings, and give the other person a chance to speak. At the same time, know that asking for specific details can make the pain even worse. This can make the healing process even harder.  Discuss the event. Explain how you interpreted the event and why you were hurt. Avoid accusatory language. Give the other person the opportunity to explain the situation from their perspective. Establish your expectations and ask what is expected of you. This will help clarify the cause of the current problem, as well as avoid future disagreements. Don't expect to get through talking about the incident in one sitting. Make that clear to your friend or partner. The healing process is going to take some time, and that person should be prepared to talk about it for some time. If they're not prepared to, that's a sign that they may not care as much about mending the relationship as you do. Often, hurtful behavior has much more to do with the other person than it does with us. Rather than face their own issues, people project them onto a close friend, family member or partner. If the incident was borne of the other person’s insecurity, help him or her deal with the pain. This will help you view the incident with compassion and help you to forgive. Here are a few examples of hurtful behaviors that are not personal attacks:  Someone makes a snide comment about your appearance because he or she feels unattractive. A partner flirts to feel desirable, not because you are unloving or unlovable. A friend is hyper-competitive because she feels inadequate. You are sabotaged by a co-worker because he fears his work is inadequate. If you fear the relationship or friendship just isn't going to work, but want to try anyway, you may as well throw in the towel right now. If you decide to give it another try, believe that it will work, not because you want it to, but because the other person has earned it. Don't constantly live in fear of the same betrayal happening again. Try to get back to normal as much as possible. If you find yourself living in the constant shadow of the betrayal, that's a sign that it's time to get out — both for your sake and for the other person's. Likely, forgiveness gave you the opportunity to be a kind and more responsible human being. Forgiving another allows you to pass that gift on to someone else.
