Dear Abby counsels a reader who says that their friend wants them to pay for not only her meal, but also her husband's.I have a woman friend I take out to lunch every once in a while. I often pay the check. When she goes back home to her husband, he’s upset that she didn’t bring something back for him. He tells my friend, “It’s what partners do.” Abby, these people are not without food or the means to get it.
I love Rebecca, who is 50 now. Why isn’t there a term to describe who she is to me ? I feel like this relationship needs a term, too.Try this on for size: When you introduce your daughter to someone who hasn’t met her before, say, “I’d like you to meet my oldest daughter, Rebecca.” I am 43, and I have been talking to this guy for seven months. We agree that we aren’t dating, and we are best friends with benefits.
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
