Dear Annie: Sober, but still paying for friends’ drinks
Dear Annie: For the past 10 years, my husband and I have enjoyed dining out with a couple of our friends, always splitting the check evenly. Recently, we embraced sobriety and no longer consume the expensive drinks that significantly add to the bill. Despite this, we continue to split the check evenly, which doesn’t seem quite fair.

Asking Eric: Man seeks closure with judge ex-girlfriend after decades
Dear Eric: When I was 16, more than 50 years ago, I had a girlfriend who lived in a nearby city. One day, I brought a joint of marijuana along on a visit. While her parents were away, we smoked it in their garage. Suddenly, we heard a car drive up and stop. In walked her father, a policeman, and her pastor.
Asking Eric: Sharing travel experiences without alienating others
Dear Eric: I have been fortunate to have met a number of well-known people and visited many locales worldwide, often, due to my business, places where tourists don’t go. Occasionally, someone in a group I am with mentions reading about a person or place I know something about from personal experience. If I volunteer that I personally am acquainted with said individual or locale, the response is nearly always negative. The conversation dies, the people walk away.

Dear Abby: Can you believe what my husband does to me when I snore?
DEAR ABBY: I have been married to my husband, “Mark,” for 13 years. During this time, I have realized that marrying him was a mistake. His parents didn’t have a healthy marriage, and I know he doesn’t know what love is. His dad often traveled for work and kept a mistress on the side. My mother-in-law stayed in the marriage anyway.
Dear Abby: Stepmom’s parenting advice isn’t just unwelcome, it’s dangerous
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I had a baby right around the time my father remarried. I didn’t know my new stepmother very well when she started giving me parenting advice. The issue is, her convictions are not in line with mine and also conflict with the advice from the CDC or the American Academy of Pediatrics. Some examples: She insists breastfeeding is stunting the baby’s growth (she’s fine), that babies should be put to bed face-down (dangerous) and that holding a baby in a car is just as good as a car seat (?!). ‘I do my best to smile, nod and go about my business.’, but she’s really pushy and keeps saying she was a nurse, so she knows what she’s talking about.
