Family
Dear Nikki:
Dear Marsha, I have an issue with respecting the people that I love the most. I seem to take out my frustrations on them, almost unconsciously. I don’t lash out at them, but more of just an arrogant, short, demeaning tone. This also includes mood changes toward them in certain circumstances and sometimes coming off... »
Treading a Fine Line
Dear Marsha, Almost a year ago now, I met an absolutely amazing guy online. As I am fully aware of some of the more sinister characters on the Internet who try to earn your trust for dishonest reasons, I was rather wary at first when he admitted that he liked me, but after a while... »

Dear bearer of Gifts
Happy Holidays Marsha, I have a question for you that concerns Christmas shopping. A member of my family has repeatedly insisted that since money is tight for everyone, that we not buy him/her a gift. I know that they mean well, but I can’t see leaving them out. This family member will be here for... »
Winter Time Blues

Christmas Alone?
