Dear Abby: My husband and I have a very different approach to social media. He's all in and I'm all out. I don't “do” the internet. I have none of my recent use, such as Facebook, Instagram, X, Snapchat. I stopped using social media five years ago. Leaving it helped me a lot.
My problem is that my husband is on “Dookscrolls” every day, and he can make him feel bad. This is frustrating enough, but my real grievance is that he is always trying to get me involved. He wants to show me his posts and read them to me, and hopes I will become more and more in a bad mood. How can I stop him? I told him I didn't want to hear it and if that was the case I would have an account myself. – Plugins in Michigan
Dear Painting: The next time your husband does this, ask him how badly it will affect you. Tell him you are off social media because you perceived that you are not good for you emotionally or physically. (Sensemational news is known to raise blood pressure.) He stresses what his addiction to social media does to his personality, and that he will not come near you again. I'll tell you. house. Then do that.
Dear Abby: My brother and his wife have been married for 22 years. He has always been a profiter. She was home with her three children, so she was able to raise her family. He followed his career, which involved many trips. My sister-in-law and I had a heart and heart when they first got married about whether this was a good arrangement because this made her vulnerable, but she said my brother had her I was sure I saw him as an equal partner. It turns out she was wrong.
Their marriage becomes unstable and he says that if they get divorced, he will be “screwed” because his wife will take away the money “his” of money. She raised their children and ran the house without help, and now he says it's not an important job. The judge gives her comfort, but he is full of resentment and makes the situation difficult.
I tried talking to my brother. He accuses me of being by her side. They are in treatment, but he means I can barely see him now. How can I understand my brother that my brother did so many jobs that allowed him to do his job? – The sisters see it clearly
Dear Sister: Let your brother's lawyer and family law judge explain the facts of life to your brother. He is now full of rage and greed, and does not think rationally. You are not going to win the differences you have with him, so for yourself, back down. I can only offer sympathy to your step-sister.
