Ask Amy: Man’s presence in porn video worries ex-friend
My husband says that the conversation should be between the two of us and not involve the girlfriend.
Neither my husband, daughter, nor her girlfriend contribute anything to the house expenses.
If I’m the one paying for everything, shouldn’t I be the one to decide such things?
I am so angry that I have started to look for another place to live.
— Irritated
Dear Irritated: The level of disrespect demonstrated by members of your household toward you is extreme. Even if you weren’t the sole support of the entire household, any living thing brought into the home should be approved by every human living there.
I’m not sure why YOU are looking for another place to live, however.
In my opinion, the household leave-taking should commence in this order:
Rabbits + Girlfriend
Daughter
Husband.
Dear Amy: I don’t always agree with you, but I thought your response to “Not From Wales” — whose husband spoke Welsh on the phone with family members – was truly inspired. Your defense of keeping heritage languages alive made me want to learn more.
— Sometime Fan
Dear Sometime: I was so intrigued by this question, I started learning Welsh online. So Diolch yn fawr (thank you very much).
