Dear Abby: As I approach my 30 years, many friends have paired and married. How do I handle the friendships in which I am close to a friend but I do not enjoy spending time with your new spouse? While they are not openly offensive, they are simply not fun to socialize.
Should I slowly get away from the relationship for a couple of years, or to confront my friend about the subject of not wanting to spend time with your partner? It seems abrasive to say: “I don’t like going out with your husband.” Any advice on how to navigate this sticky situation would be appreciated. – I met them when
Dear knew them: Women sail these sticky situations gathering for “girls’ lunches”, spa days (if it is in the budget) and exercise. I do not recommend telling a newly married that her husband is not fun to socialize, because not only will she not be well received, but also guarantee that she eliminates her from her guest list.
Dear Abby: My husband will soon be published his first book. We both wait for a long time for this moment and we are delighted that I finally have this achievement to their credit.
While I never had any real expectation about possible dedication, I thought I could get a brief mention. Instead, the dedication was for someone who did not know personally, and I was completely excluded. His co -author took the opportunity to recognize his spouse in addition to other people, and now I am sad that he does not recognize my support.
I am not sure if I should tell you something about it. If I do it and he changes the dedication, it really will not be of him. If I hope, I will continue to feel despised. He is a dedicated husband and supports me in everything I do, so this is a big problem just because I feel it is? What to do, if something? – Without being recognized in the east
Estimated without recognizing: I am sure that her husband had her reasons to dedicate the book as she did. Because this is a big problem for you, it indicates the effect that omission has had on you. Communication is important in healthy marriages, and if it fills it, it will continue to stir.
Dear Abby: Two months ago, I began to see a friend. She is involved with my close friend, but she treats him as garbage. I have witnessed it myself. I am not sorry to go out with him; She deserves to be alone. They have no children. I am not trying to be silly about this situation. Do you think I’m a terrible person? – It’s complicated
Estimated complicated: No, but your soon former friend will do it as soon as the news arrives. And if you think she treats her boy as garbage, jump through the squirts, because a burden approaches.
