Will had supported her wholly and gladly. (She wanted to beryllium a stay-at-home mother; he makes bully money.) This wounded him terribly. 

Will has met different female connected Facebook Dating, and they’ve been seeing each different for a fewer months. She’s a certified nursing adjunct and is now wearing a immense gem ringing from Will. She perpetually posts statements connected Facebook astir what she wants. Cruises are her main desire. Yesterday, she posted that she’s looking guardant to 3 of them. 

I don’t cognize what CNAs earn, but she has respective big children pinch kids she spends a batch of clip pinch and posts pictures of outings. This is good, but I’m acrophobic she has targeted Will arsenic he was hurting from being blindsided. Is location a tactful measurement to be aware him to beryllium observant truthful he doesn’t get utilized again? — CONCERNED AUNTIE IN FLORIDA

DEAR AUNTIE: I whitethorn sound for illustration a surgery record, but location is simply a logic why folks are advised to “wait a year” earlier making important decisions aft a death. In your nephew’s case, nan decease of his matrimony would qualify. Giving a female he has known only a short clip nan Rock of Gibraltar for her ringing digit seems a spot premature. 

It would not beryllium incorrect to mention to your nephew that earlier he makes immoderate lifelong promises to anyone, it’s important he person premarital counseling arsenic good arsenic talk drafting up a prenuptial statement pinch his attorney. (The counsel he is utilizing for his divorcement could qualify.)

This afternoon, my hubby came location and told maine our neighbors had invited him retired to meal to convey him for helping them pinch their gait activity yesterday. Usually, I’m astatine activity successful nan afternoon, but coming was my time off. When I asked him if I was included, he said, “No. Just me!” I felt bad but didn’t show it. 

My hubby came location a fewer hours later and began talking to our big boy astir their evening arsenic if I wasn’t there. When I asked why he didn’t show them I was location and would’ve travel along, his consequence was, “I knew you would someway make it my responsibility that you didn’t come!” I told him it didn’t look correct that he was tagging on while his woman was near behind. Am I overreacting? — MRS. LEFT OUT

DEAR MRS. LEFT OUT: Your neighbors were incorrect to induce your hubby retired and exclude you. But what happened aft that makes maine wonderment if thing much is incorrect successful your narration pinch your husband. (“I knew you would make it my fault,” etc.) If this is simply a denotation of a larger problem, you and your hubby should talk it pinch nan thief of a matrimony and family therapist.
