Ask Amy: I don’t really know her. Is it a bad idea to let her share my bed?

Dear Amy: I have a woman friend whose lease is up at the end of the month. She asked about moving in with me. I’m retired, never married, and we have gone out about three times as friends, but I can see spending the rest of my life with her (she is 20 years younger).

Amy Dickinson

The house I own is small and I have a male housemate, also retired, living in one of the bedrooms. The other bedroom is for his home-based business. There isn’t any place for her to sleep, except in my bed.

I don’t know much about her. She has an ex-boyfriend who seems to bother her, which is one reason she wants to move. She is also filing for divorce from her husband in another country.

She works two jobs and keeps strange hours.

We haven’t been intimate yet, but we both want to be.

My life would really change if she lived here.

I don’t know if just being friends and sleeping in the same bed without being intimate will work, while we are still getting to know each other.

Ask Amy: These nosy people think my vaccinations are their business

Ask Amy: Am I obliged to keep my job so I can teach these privileged men something?

Ask Amy: He’s a bad husband but I love him too much to leave

Ask Amy: I find it sick that she looks like my twin

Ask Amy: She won’t come to my wedding but she wants me at her baby’s baptism

Dear Wondering: On the one hand: Nope. No, no, no.

On the other hand, maybe the pandemic has prevented you from attending live theater. Allowing this stranger into your home (and your bed) would be your guaranteed ticket to nonstop drama.

If you do decide to let her live in your home, please research the laws in your state regarding eviction beforehand.

Dear Amy: My parents are in their late 50s. They live in their own home nearby. Their marriage has been rocky for many years. They seem to stay together mostly for financial reasons.

My husband and I have been very strict about contact since the pandemic started, especially because we had a new baby, born last year.

My mom helps out by providing childcare so that I can keep working. She wants to be extra careful for the sake of our household, as well as her own.

The big problem is that my father thinks COVID is a joke. He won’t social-distance or wear masks unless he is forced to. He’s acting childish and shows no concern for …read more

Ask Amy: She had no right to share my news on Facebook Dear Amy: My mom frequently “shares” things via social media that she has no right to share. Amy Dickinson She’ll take a picture that we have posted on Facebook or Instagram and post it herself (almost as if she was the one who took it), often relaying the story of the picture as if it’s her own — basically “stealing” it and reposting it herself. Recently, she posted on Facebook about my and my fiance’s wedding date, stating, “So excited for a [wedding month] wedding!” and tagging us. This was before we (the actual couple) had even announced it. I told…
Joe Biden goes to bed early, reads letters from Americans & likes a good fire It should not be discounted or forgotten that 80 million Americans – probably more than that – are still processing the trauma inflicted upon us by Donald Trump. We’re past one full month of the Biden presidency, and many of us are still getting used to it. We’re getting used to NOT flinching whenever we watch a White House press conference or off-the-cuff remarks from the president. We’re getting used to having a president who is normal, who does normal things, who actually spends his days working and taking meetings as opposed to a guy sitting around, watching Fox News…
Prince William hasn’t spoken to Harry ‘for some time’ & had no idea about the interview Last November and December, royal reporters like Katie Nicholl were trying to convince people that Prince William and Prince Harry’s relationship was getting better now that they had gotten some physical, emotional and psychological space from each other. There were reports of Zoom calls, an exchange of Christmas presents and plans to spend time together once the pandemic was over. I never really believed any of those stories. I think Harry is still – justifiably – very angry at William. While there might be some olive branches offered, I suspect that Harry would probably be willing to meet William halfway,…
Ask Amy: They get offended, but their food makes me sick Dear Amy: I currently am wrestling with several serious food allergies. Lab bloodwork has just revealed an autoimmune disorder. I am scheduled to see a rheumatologist in two months. Amy Dickinson My body is thrown into a vicious cycle for weeks after consuming foods that trigger allergies. So, what should I do when I get together with friends or family for dinners and they try to make special food for me? I don’t want to risk even trying this food because of past experiences with bad reactions. Recently, a host assured me that all of the ingredients were safe for me,…
