SingleScenes

by Sarah Smart

Q.  I am dating my ex-wife’s girlfriend, and have been for the last eight months.  I have been divorced for three years without any pressure in my life, and now it’s back.  My ex-wife’s sister is getting married in a few weeks and my girlfriend insists on attending with me in tow.  But I don’t wish to go, because I don’t want to flaunt our relationship in my ex-wife’s face.   However, at this point, I’ve been given an ultimatum…either I go or she’s gone.  She thinks I still care for my ex-wife.  What do you think I should do?

A.  Do what you want to do, based on what’s important to you.  Your wishes, your feelings, or your girlfriend insecurities.  Do you care enough about her to compromise your comfort level?  Then do it!  Personally, after a three-year divorce, I wouldn’t care.  Odds are, your ex-wife probably knows anyway.

Q.  If your best friend didn’t invite you to her bridal shower because her sister doesn’t like you, would you invite her to yours?

A.  No!  Because she would no longer be my friend.

Q.  Do you think it’s appropriate to answer your significant other when your phone rings and he wants to know who it is?  He accuses me of being sneaky and hiding something because I refuse to tell him.  This is a problem that is really affecting our relationship.

A.  Absolutely Not!  Do you?  If so, stop doing it!
