On This Week's Feedback Friday:

  • Jordan went to China (and, surprisingly, they allowed him to come back)!
  • Your friend visited you in New Orleans and spent 70% of the trip obsessively researching restaurant menus but ordered only basic food, ignored activities you suggested, and showed no interest in spending quality time together. She took snacks you bought and left you with Uber bills. Could her fixation be affecting the marriage in which her husband is sleeping in another room?
  • You've trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu for years and supported your coach by paying dues even when you couldn't attend. When you tried to cancel your membership, your coach claimed there was a 10-day cancellation window not mentioned in your contract and became aggressive when you pushed back. How do you handle a potentially volatile martial arts instructor?
  • Your son has shown challenging, aggressive behavior since childhood, yet excels professionally. He's made false accusations about your parenting, demanded you admit to things you didn't do to maintain a relationship with your grandchildren, and has shown concerning behavior in his marriage. How do you maintain a relationship with your grandchildren under these circumstances?
  • Recommendation of the Week: The Beast Insulated Tumbler
  • After writing in previously as a 35-year-old virgin, you dated someone for three months, had your first sexual experience, and though you broke up, you've maintained a genuine friendship. Her children call you "uncle" and you're part of each other's lives, but you wonder if new romantic partners will accept your friendship. Can Harry and Sally really be friends?
