... she’s asked him to get braces, get LASIK surgery instead of wearing glasses, and to change his hair and clothes to match her preferences.
DEAR AMY: My brother “Bob” has dated his girlfriend “Ainsley” for four years. During this time, she’s asked him to get braces, get LASIK surgery instead of wearing glasses, and to change his hair and clothes to match her preferences.
What is a tactful way to respond to her when she criticizes what he used to look like? I just want her to know that Bob is – and has always been – a great person, and it’s shallow and hurtful to say those kinds of things. One way to respond is to keep it simple and say, “My brother’s great, no matter how he looks. I wish you could see that.”DEAR AMY: My mother gave me, through a reputable financial institution, a significant sum of money.She has an ample monthly income from several sources, but gambles at casinos and gives money away to family, but denies both.I have consulted attorneys and they say she is mentally incompetent.
