Dear Bubbi,

What do you think about a friend who promises to take a cruise with me every year (for 4 years) and then always cancels out at the last minute? We've known each other for twenty years and besides this grievance of mine, we have a good friendship.

~Solo Traveler

Dear Solo Traveler,

I would guess that your friend either has a fear of the water, a problem with seasickness or a dislike for sleeping anywhere but her own bed. I think after being disappointed four times, you should look for another traveling companion.

Dear Bubbi,

I lent my sister-in-law a dress for a party she was attending and she returned it all crumbled up in a bag. I can't believe she didn't even bother drycleaning it before returning it to me! Should I say something to her?

~Annoyed Sister-In-Law

Dear Annoyed Sister-In-Law,

I would not say anything but next time (if there is a next time) I would tell her before you lend her any clothing, that you expect to get it back freshly washed or drycleaned, Let it go this one time...It's not worth the family feud!
