Ask Amy: Elder man worries his daughter has ‘quit’ him
Furthermore, just to point out the obvious: You seem to be the quitter, here.
Dear Amy: I have a friend who is my age, (late 50s).
She has grown children and a good career, but – since her divorce – has never had a long-term happy relationship.
She is on all the dating sites and dates many times per week.
I don’t choose to date right now. I am content to be on my own. I know I am lucky to be content.
I don’t want to hear all the news around this topic – it doesn’t interest me.
It’s been years of these stories and I would prefer to discuss something else.
We work together, so I can’t drop contact.
How do I set a boundary about this?
– R
