why you should sweat the small stuff

at the end of the day, the small stuff will bother you. it will either bother you enough that you think about it, or you will realize it doesn't bother you as much as you thought it did, and you will continue you on. but anything can be a deal breaker. because the small stuff never goes away. you live with the daily frustration as much as you live with fundamental differences, probably more. so if their obsession with a demasculizing musician or an inappropriate flavor of gatorade is a constant topic of conversation, let it go. because it doesn't matter how much your friends laugh about it, if you can't laugh about it with them you will never be happy.
