Tough Talk: January 17, 2025

Tough Talk,

I have a pet goldfish, let’s just say his name is Rusty (for his own protection).  We’ve been through some tough times together TT.  But now, I have a wonderful new girlfriend and we’ve actually talked about a long-term relationship.  The problem she has is . . . Rusty.  She refuses to say why, but she has this hatred, fear, revulsion of him?  I really love her, but she says Rusty will have to go if we ever wish to be together.  I think she’s being ridiculous, but not sure what to do.  What’s your advice TT? (Cumberland, Arizona)

Cumberdude,

Two options: (1) Flush Rusty down the toilet or (2) Tell her to get psychiatric help.  What type of  wack-job is this woman if she can’t even tell you what her problem is?  I’d stick with Rusty and tell her to FO&DD!
