SingleScenes

Q.   I was involved with a woman for five years who bought me very expensive gifts, including a Rolex watch.    However, when I recently told her I was marrying someone else, in an effort to end the relationship, she went ballistic and demanded the return of all the things she’s ever bought me.  I refused, and since that time she has been harassing me at home and at work to return “HER things!”  I think she’s being petty.  What do you think?

A.    I think she’s behaving as a woman scorned, and if I were you I would return all her stuff immediately and hope it will stop the harassment.

Q.    I was dating this guy I really cared about, and after five months he abruptly broke off the relationship.  My problem is that I had grown attached to his mother, and she was having a birthday party that she invited me to prior to the breakup.  I want to go, but my friends say I shouldn’t.  What do you say?

A.      I agree with your friends.  If he said goodbye, you need to say it too.  Call the mother and wish her Happy Birthday and move on.  I’m sure your appearance there would be misinterpreted.

Q.       I recently asked my boyfriend to buy me a lottery ticket, and I later won $35,000.  I don’t wish to share any of my winnings with him, and he is very angry about it.  I feel like he’s imposing on me to even make such a request.  It’s not like we’re married. What do you think?

A.       I think your boyfriend is unlucky in love.  Shame on you!
