O ne o f my friends has the bad
habit o f talking about people. I
d o n ’t have a problem until she
starts being loud and the per
son she talks about can hear.
W e ’ve had quite a few fights
an d e m b a rra ss in g s itu a tio n s
because o f her mouth. Now
that she has this reputation of
being a trouble m aker, people
are thinking I’m the sam e way. My friends step
aw ay when 1 show up and they think I gossip
and start trouble as well. I'm tom betw een two
sets o f friends and need help. —A nonym ous;

Dear Frantic Wife:
T here w ere problem s in your

stopped being a fat boy. Now
that the w eight is no longer an
issue, h e 's confident and co m
ing out o f y o u r shadow , his
insecurities arc gone and h e's

should celebrate his w eight loss
and be proud to start on a new
journey and new chapter in both
your lives. O therw ise, y o u ’ll be

Dear Other Woman:
You know good and well that y o u ’ve tossed
your tw o cents into the gam e a few tim es and
now you w ant to run and hide. The best thing
you can do is tell your friend to grow up and
have som e discretion if she ch o o ses to talk
about people. If she c a n 't take your advice,,
sh e 's not a friend and you should only deal with
her one-on-one o r on the phone u nless you
w ant to borrow trouble. A lso, if she ca n ’t say
anything good about peo p le, she should be
q u iet.

Boy oh boy, did you get fooled thinking some
body else’s grass was greener on the other side.
Actually you got what you bargained for because
you had no business with som eone else’s hus
band. You should feel bad because you wrecked
som eone’s home, m essed up your life and he’s
probably on his way to cheat with someone else.
As for the wife being happy, you did her a favor
by making it easy to get rid o f him. You made your
bed hard now sleep in it!
