  • From My Orbit

    Hey there, sorry I'm late to the party. Promise I didn't read any of your posts yet and am getting my first gander at the letters (that is, my reactions that match yours are completely coming from me, even though I'm late to the game!). Where was I, you ask? Just somewhere with a crummy internet connection, that's all. Now, down to ...

    LW#1: You're long-distance and go without seeing each other more than twice a month. I just don't see how this is a sustainable intimate relationship without definite plans for one of you to move. And if there is no plan, well, are you guys really serious or are you booty calls with emotional bennies? I mean, he sounds like a nice guy and I'm ...

    LW#1: Oh. My. God. You poor creature.

The bride, well, suicide can be so painful to those left ...

    LW#1: You're right. This is a terrible time to find a job. It's also a terrible time in a red state to find any employment where you're not bumping up against, ah, people who will feel free to just say what they feel to whoever they think might be inclined to agree. I say this as a refugee from the Natural State, someone who grew up in a ...

    LW#1: This problem is so far beyond the powers of an advice columnist I feel compelled to tell you to get psychological help. And for the love of all that is holy, if you go the truth-telling route do NOT do it in public. I don't care how angry your dad ''may'' get, his emotions will almost certainly be overwhelming and painful and deserve ...
