Not only will these strategies fail to get you what you want, they will cause damage by attacking the important pillars of a relationship: respect, dignity and compassion. Here are some of those losing strategies: 1) needing to be right - the idea that one person in the relationship needs to be right over the other, 2) controlling your partner - if you are in control or think you are, be prepared for payback, 3) unbridled self expression - exploding in anger or saying mean things that you can't take back, 4) retaliation - you hurt me so I get to hurt you back, 5) withdrawal - pulling back, shutting yourself down, shutting the other out and/or not confronting the issue, 6) being contemptuous and self-righteous -this puts down the other person while trying to prove you're 'right', 7) punishing - in a number of ways such as angry outbursts or withdrawing from conversations, 8) complaining - while it looks like the complainer is a victim, complaining is an indirect attack to show how the other is failing us. Complaining never contributes to the creation of a solution. To make a difference in any relationship, adopt a strategy of respect. Decide that no matter what, you will not drop below the line of respectful behaviour toward another human being. By shifting your mindset from protecting yourself to protecting the relationship, you will start shifting your responses and reactions.

The exception would be wisdom teeth, which most people do not need. Aristotle said 'Nature abhors a vacuum', and so does your mouth. There is a 'domino-effect' when a tooth is extracted. I really mean it. Your other teeth can literally fall over into the space where the tooth was extracted. The tipped teeth will not meet up with their partners properly. It can also create food traps and interferences when chewing. When one tooth is missing, the neighbouring teeth will take more of the load which can lead to excessive wear and fractures. Teeth support your lips and cheeks, and also help you form sounds when you speak. So you can actually look and sound different after a tooth is lost. And to answer your anticipated next question, no, it usually isn't an improvement. So there are lot's of good reasons for replacing a lost tooth. Watch this space next time for ways you can get it back. By the way, Aristotle was right about a lot of things but he did write once that men have more teeth than women, which is totally wrong. Next time just count them dude! I need to have a tooth out. Should I get it replaced? Also, did the classical Greek philosophers have anything to say on the subject? 39 MILL STREET, ACTON Tues & Wed 10-5, Thurs 10-6, Fri 10-5, Sat 10-4, Closed Sun & Mon the little Acton store... with so much more!
