Tough Talk, I’m living with this woman and I knew it was going to be a bad idea, but thought to give it a shot.  What do I have to loose?  She has turned into a psycho and talks non-stop about the most inane things.  Like who gives a damn that the toilet paper wasContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 10, 2024”

Tough Talk, I have a good friend from high school and we recently were talking and he told me how he wants to be buried with his dog which he has frozen in his freezer.  We’re in our early 40s and in good health.  Not sure what to make of this, but I just don’tContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 9, 2024”

Tough Talk, My wife and I are part of a social circuit with several other couples.  One of the couples clearly does not like us and they are always off-standish and stuck-up, like spoiled brat girls from high school.  We both have daughters the same age and they like each other very much.  Their daughterContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 8, 2024”

Tough Talk, My husband and I have a delightful granddaughter who just became a teenager and even though she can be a handful, she’s a good kid.  Recently however, her parents have been getting in my face because I give her advice about being a good and honest person.  I guess she uses it againstContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 7, 2024”

Tough Talk, I have an uncle and he used to be so much fun to be with, but now he is turning into an old curmudgeon and doesn’t want to see or visit with anyone.  He’s often bitter and snide and just wish he would be the same fun-loving person we knew growing up.  WhatContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 6, 2024”

Tough Talk, I have a good friend whose mother is going into the hospital for some minor surgery.  I feel bad, but don’t want to overdramatize this situation.  What do you think I should say? (Connelly, Minnesota,) Connie, Tell her not to get ripped off and to keep an eye on all her belongings. That’sContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 3, 2024”

Tough Talk, I’m friends with a woman who is a little younger than I am and she is very nice, but if I ever have a problem or set-back, she tries to turn it into a major catastrophe and continually keeps calling me to see what’s going on.  Sometimes you just want to talk toContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 2, 2024”

Tough Talk, I really love my husband and his family.  They are the finest people in our little community.  His younger brother however is a bit of a handful . . . let’s say.  He is very nice until he has a couple beers and then he gets down right mean.  I know my husbandContinue reading “Tough Talk: May 1, 2024”

Tough Talk, I’m a little embarrassed to tell you this, but my husband loves soap operas.  The cheesier the better.  He spends all his time watching these shows and has no time for anything else.  I’m not sure what happened to him, but he just stares in front of his phone, computer and tv allContinue reading “Tough Talk: April 30, 2024”

Tough Talk, I was engaged to someone I thought was the most wonderful person until I discovered he has been stealing from me and using my identity for all sorts of unsavory purposes.  The engagement is off, but I’m not sure when I should stop wearing his ring.  When is the right time to takeContinue reading “Tough Talk: April 19, 2024”
