Dear Deanna!
My sister has moved in with me and
it's a total disaster. She is a liar, a
thief and a master manipulator. I am
used to a calm life that doesn't
involve anyone opening my mail,
answering my phone and acting as
if they live in a hotel with room
service. I'm going to put her out but
I have to face drama from my fami ly
because she's told them a pack of
lies. O ur family is torn and she al­
ready has everyone on her side.
How do I evict her and still save
face. -•Anonymous; Los Angeles
Dear Anonymous:
You need your sister and all of this
m adness just like you need a hole in
the head. However, your sister is
som eone you grew up with and you
knew most things about her before
she moved in. This decision is quick
and to the point. If it’s your house,
your rules and your money, then
t
I have to choose who I want to
marry. I have a childhood friend
that would love to be with me but I
d o n 't feel any firew orks for him. I
really w ant to m arry my ex-boy­
friend but I know he would only
marry me for stability since he has
a history o f unem ploym ent. I am so
anxious to become a married woman
but I'm having a tough tim e with
this decision. N either man has ex ­
pressed this interest so I will be the
one proposing. W ho do I choose?

Dear Confusion:
You are missing the m ajor dynam ­
ics o f m arriage such as a mutual
agreem ent and o f course, a loving
com m itted relationship. This is a
union from God and not to he taken
lightly or as a game. Your child­
hood friend doesn ’t deserve heart­
break and yourex-boyfriend would
use you. You deserve better and
should invest tim e in building a
loving relationship with som eone
that has love, trust, respect and a
joint decision for com m itm ent and
matrimony.
