Dear Abe: I am 29 years old, and my friend is 36 years old. We met on a dating site and we were together for three years. He separated with me two months ago because he did not think he could marry me. (We were not involved.) He says I love his life, his friend and his dream come true, and I feel the same, but he has issues of commitment.
When I met him, I was about to divorce and end offensive marriage. He was the best friend, and for us, our relationship was perfect. But his commitment issues gave him doubt that I am the person who is supposed to be with him.
I really think God put it in my life. Something told me it was. How can I make him see that we are supposed to be and not to give up the best relationship for each of us ever? – A true spirit friend in Georgia
Dear friend: I love your sales field, but the person you have to buy is, and he is not on the market to get a permanent attachment. Believe me, I am sympathetic, however both of them The partners should think that the other is “one”, and the desire for commitment appears to be definitely one side here.
Remember that you met this man as you come out of an abusive relationship. It was nice to have passed. It will be interesting to know if you have received any kind of consultation after that previous relationship, because you may now need to make sure that you do not repeat an unhealthy style.
Dear Abe: I was lucky to learn an uncommon hobby of my grandmother. Because I am the only granddaughter who continued the hobby, I inherited its tools. I remain in contact with my extended family (aunts, uncles and cousins) through social media, and for this reason, spread my work from time to time. They expressed his happiness that someone continues the hobby, so I want to continue to participate.
My problem is that many friends continue for me to sell them. I work full time, I have a large family and volunteer in my children's schools, so I only have a little time to dedicate my hobby.
It takes to complete each element for several hours, and I do not want to sell it. Also, if you priced it appropriately for the time that takes it, the elements will be expensive.
I have told these friends over and over again that I would do it as a pure hobby, yet they continue to bomb my posts with the demands I sell them. I don't want to “cancel a friend” of these people. They are my friends and in other wonderful ways. How can I transfer my message to them? – Machala in Pennsylvania
Dear Macri: Tell your friends that you praise that they want to buy your creations, but after spending the amount of time you create, they become like “your children”. Clear that you will not sell it more than one of your children, and they are not It will never be For sale. Say it with a smile, or the smile of expressive symbols. But do not retreat. If the requests continue to come, then share these images (i.e., only relatives).
