Tough Talk,
I am in a loving and committed relationship with a kind and decent man. I love him dearly. We are going to get married and God willing have children. There is one thing that bothers me however. He has several family members and friends who are nice, but can be very pushy. They can also be rude and nasty, especially after they drink. I know he’s very close with them and has known them since childhood and we just met two years ago. I don’t want to interfere with his life, but I don’t look forward to dealing with them for the rest of our lives either. What should I do TT?

CP,
The first thing you must do is not tolerate when they disrespect you. Immediately tell them to stop being rude and arrogant. Who the hell do they think they are? Also, it sounds like your fiancée is a gutless toad. A real man would not let this happen. He knows damn well what is going on and if he doesn’t, he is a dope and maybe you should consider dumping him. You may love him dearly, but that doesn’t make him any less of a dope or a schmuck. Stand up for yourself.
