Tips for Handling Gossip
Q: I have a friend that is always commenting about everyone, and while I am interested in hearing what she has to say I always feel badly afterward. What should I do?
Sincerely,
Gossip Handler
A: Dear Gossip Handler,
It’s called idle talk, hearsay, grapevine, scuttlebutt, rumor, dirt, slander, scandal—whatever the name, it’s gossip just the same, and it’s all ugly. There is nothing wrong with having an opinion about a public figure or discussing a class topic, a song, a movie, or even a Sunday School lesson.
Date Needs A Make-Over
Q: I met a nice guy..but he's missing his front teeth. This is a big turn off. How does one tell a guy to get some teeth before you call me again??
Signed,
Under The Gum
A: Dear Under The Gum:
If you're interested in him, but not attracted to him because of some
facet of his appearance, in your case -- your guy is missing a few
teeth - get some more information about what it is that offends
you.
Soulmate Search
Q: I am currently dating someone I truly adore, but an ex-boyfriend has been telling me things like how much he loves and adores me, and that I am the only person he can see himself having kids with, and he regrets breaking it off with me. This ex-boyfriend is currently in another relationship and does not know I’m current seeing someone. He’s grown so much since I’ve known him. I also love his parents. My current boyfriend is not around much anymore because of work. We see each other two or maybe three days a week. My current boyfriend treats me very well and really takes care of me. We have been together for roughly two years. We are physically very passionate (the sex is great), I truly love him and would give my life for him, and I am so comfortable around him that I can be myself. Although my current boyfriend is great, I think I’m in love with my ex-boyfriend and feel he is my soul mate. I don’t know what to do. I’m torn and confused.
Signed,
Who’s My Soul Mate?
A: Dear Who’s My Soul Mate?:
How can you be in love with an ex-boyfriend who is seeing someone else, but is telling you that you’re the only one he can see himself having children with?
Internet Exclusivity
Q: I've been on this internet dating site and meet this really great guy that I'm crazy about. We've had five or six dates now. Do you think it's time for me to take my picture and profile off the website? I'm not interested in meeting any one else, and I don't want him to either. What do I do?
Signed,
Internet Dating Etiquette Challenged
A: Dear Internet Dating Etiquette Challenged:
Until a man asks you for an exclusive relationship, and you agree to have one - keep your profile up there!
