Tough Talk: January 31, 2025

Tough Talk,

I’ve finally met a young lady and after a number of heartbreaking relationships, I think she’s the one.  She says she’s serious about me too.  Her mother is a nice, but I notice that she can be very negative if not surly and makes very mean and snide remarks.  My girlfriend is very close to her and needs to run everything by her.  I want her to be the one, but I also know that her mother will be involved in our relationship more than I will like.  What do you think I should do TT? (Cantwell, Hawaii)

Canterwall,

You need to be honest about your feelings and emotions and tell her that her mother is a nasty piece of work and that she needs to cut her loose.  If she’s not willing to do this, then she is clearly beneath you and she’s gotta go!
