Large unconfirmed transaction

[Helptherabbit]

     If someone could please point me in the right direction this rabbit would be appreciative.
0 confirms. Idk what is going wrong but i've had many transactions and never a problem. The transaction was sent from electrum. It is for quite alot (atleast for me). So I have read for a few hours and pulled approximately %53 of my hair out.
     Unfortunately, I can only seem to understand every other word of the gibberish posted here. Seems like a great community though. Please help the rabbit!!!

Fee is a little lower than recommended (50 satoshi per byte. 100spb recommended.). Shouldn't take too long to confirm though. Give it few hours.

Your fee is a little too low, 50 satoshis/byte. The current recommended transaction fee is 90 satoshis/byte according to http://bitcoinfees.21.co/. Just wait, it should eventually confirm.

To avoid this next time, go to Tools > Preferences and check "Dynamic fees" Then move the fee multiplier towards the right to get a higher fee rate. Generally a higher fee means faster confirmation.

 It will eventually confirm but you will have to wait a bit longer.  The fee you paid was a little light.

Thank you all for the replies. I don't quite remember how I went about setting the transaction fee because I accidentally insta-napped afterwards. So in order to make sure this doesn't happen again I should refer to the site above correct? Also is there anyway to speed up this transaction I. E. raising the transaction fee or anything? Keep seeing this satoshi thing. Hopefully I am not screwed...

Do as I said to enable dynamic fees in Electrum. This means that Electrum will set the optimal fee based upon the current state of the network.

Ok will do tyvm. Still nothing. I hope it works out ughhhh

It will get confirmed don't worry but next time include an optimal fee, your fee is not a tip, the fee is the fuel your transaction needs to spread into the network, don't risk your money.

Understandable. Ty. Do I need to keep my electrum client open over night?

 I remember my first transaction.  It was a little unnerving as well
