Dear Teeter: My husband and I disagree about where to park when you visit someone. He says you park on the street, always. I say that if I am visiting someone, I should park in their driveway. He says that is rude. Who is correct?
Dear Chrissy:The really depends on who you're visiting. Some people enjoy it more when you come in their driveway. Some people would prefer you keep out of their driveway altogether. Some local ordinances may actually restrict you from street parking and you'd actually have to come in their driveway.
What kind of car do you drive? If it's not a really big car, it shouldn't that bad if you go in their driveway. I mean, if you put your hummer up in their, with its ridiculous girth, then it might be painful for your host to get anything out of there. I think your husband is just afraid that if he becomes a real pain in the ass, he'll be barred from enjoying what he may perceive to be a good thing.
Ultimately, you should ask the host. Just ask if you can come in their driveway. If they say no, then big deal. But really, there's no universal yes or no answer to this one.
My husband gave me a beautiful diamond and sapphire ring for our anniversary. Because it was too large, I took it to a jeweler who has worked on many pieces for me. After looking at the ring, he asked me where it came from. I told him it was a gift from my husband.
When I asked the jeweler why he asked, he informed me that the sapphire was synthetic and the "diamonds" were, in fact, cubic zirconia. I was shocked, and now I don't know what to do. I'm not certain whether or not to tell my husband. I don't want him to think I don't like the ring, in case he knew what he was purchasing. It is beautiful, and I will love wearing it regardless. However, if he bought the ring thinking it was the real McCoy, he may have spent a lot more on it than it is worth.
Because my husband has always given me exquisite jewelry, I suspect he doesn't know. Should I share this information with him or keep my mouth shut?
Dear pnelson:You can do the due diligence for this on your own without bothering your husband. Check out the credit card bill or bank statement. If you don't have joint accounts, sneak into his online account. Since your husband is probably a guy, he also probably leaves his password remembered on his internet browser. Us men are inherently lazy like that.
If it's cheap, call him out and ask him what's up. If it's expensive, get a second opinion. You never know what those diamond appraisers are thinking. I don't know what they're thinking. The only diamond appraiser I knew was Donnie Brasco, but he actually turned out to be a fed. So I mean, as far as I am concerned, they're not trustworthy.
My husband, "Frank," and I have been married a year and are expecting a baby. I recently discovered that he has been viewing gay pornography every day for months on our home computer. I have tracked it using the history file, and finally confronted him.
Frank says it is just curiosity and that he is not gay or bisexual. He says he has never been with a man, nor would he want to. Frank did admit he has been viewing those sites for about three years.
This has left me feeling betrayed and questioning my husband's sexuality. How can a churchgoing, married man who's expecting a baby, who appears normal and heterosexual, be viewing gay pornography Web sites daily?
Dear Kathy:Chill out. Did you know that Nacho Vidal actually directs gay porn? This guy is straight. He's devastated countless women, including Belladonna, who he was engaged to. Did you see Belladonna talk to Barbara Walters on national television a few years ago? I mean come on. He was banging that in every hole like a violent rapist fresh out of state pen. But now, he also makes gay porn.
I believe it was his decision to give something to his "other" fans that really shook up the industry. I mean, one second he's Rocco Sifreddi's protege, preparing to take the mantel of porn king, and next he's a bit ostracized. The community started wondering if he's gay or bi. I think his fans still love him - he knows his fans. He has a lot of gay fans. He doesn't do gay scenes. But he kind of got the short end of the stick. He's a great director though. Definitely better than Manuel Ferrara. I mean, Manny is so soft on the girls. But when Nacho is done with a woman she probably won't walk straight for a week. If Bill Romanowski, the ex NFL player with 4 SuperBowl rings, did porn, he's be like Nacho Vidal.
Your husband is just watching tv, man. He's not getting cuffed by the cops naked because he had to take the biggest pee in the world and went to a public bathroom where there's guys with no pants on. Man... just ask him if he wants to park it around back. He's probably afraid to stop parking it in the front driveway because he thinks it'd be rude.
Dear Teeter: My ex, "Wesley," and I divorced up two years ago, after he bit part of my ear off during an argument. I had been trying to help him, but that was the last straw. I finally had to end it.
I moved away and am using a mailing service, but Wesley won't stop harassing me. He had a stamp made with my name and mailing address on it, and he is sending me thousands of subscriptions. It has cost me more than $6,000 so far and the police are involved. This has been happening for 15 months.
How should I handle this? I'm afraid that changing my mailing address will damage my credit.
Dear Mail Order:You should confront him. Don't be afraid of him just because he Mike Tyson'd your ear. You should catch him off guard, at his place of employment, and call him out on his actions in public. Even better is if you serve him with an subpoena to appear in court for his actions.
You should also get a lawyer that does tort litigation. I'm not qualified to give any legal advice beyond that.
Until next time,
-Teeter
