Tough Talk: March 24, 2025

Tough Talk,

I have a good friend who whenever we meet, says hello by gently touching the left side of my face.  At first I thought it was a sign of affection, but now I think it’s a strange way of showing me who’s boss.  Regardless, I don’t like it, but don’t want to hurt the feelings of one of my closest friends.  What should I do TT? (Bonnett, Florida)

Bonner,

Tell your friend to keep her GD hands off you.  It’s creepy and weird.  What the hell is wrong with you? If she keeps it up, give her a dose of pepper spray or other offensive odor and cut her loose.  Don’t tolerate this nonsense.
