DEAR MISS MANNERS: An acquaintance at my gym stopped me and said, “Oh, I DO wish you hadn’t had your hair cut!”
She then waxed poetic about how beautiful my hair had been and how she loved seeing it swing as I walked on the treadmill. This was slightly strange, as my hair has been short for 15 years and I had only had it trimmed. GENTLE READER: Guilt seems to Miss Manners an extreme reaction when the other person was rude -- even if unintentionally -- and you were not. But if you wished to soften your already-proper response, you could, in the second encounter, have explained that you did not mean to suggest that you were offended -- merely surprised.DEAR MISS MANNERS: I regularly send gifts to my sister and her children. Each time I send a gift, I sign a card that accompanies it.
I have not told my sister about the gift-giving process in our household, nor do I intend to. The issue is that she always sends a thank-you note to me, my husband and teenage son for the gifts.
