Etiquette - December 2006

Actually, I found the neighbor girl sleeping on my living room carpet several weeks ago, but it's the same principle. It frightened me horribly, but perhaps it was my own fault as I forgot to lock my door. Nonetheless, she is harmless although she does have some sort of crush on me or some sort of obsession.

Also, I am quite certain that she wasn't drunk when she decided to sleep in my living room.

My living room carpet has a very high pile, and I often get my feet trapped in it myself, but I checked her feet before I woke her up by duct taping her to the floor and pressing the button on my fire alarm, and her feet were in fact not stuck.

What should I say to her? Would it make it worse if I mentioned it since I would be talking to her which would probably make her think that I do have romantic feelings for her (which I don't)?

My name is Kyle and I'm a 16 year old boy. My Grandmother recently died after her wheelchair broke and she fell out. She had a condition called Hemophelia where her blood doesn't clot, so it didn't take long once she fell. My mom is making me go to her funeral, but the only nice thing I have to wear is a tan linen suit that I got as a gift last summer. Is it appropriate to wear a tan linen suit to a funeral in winter, or should I go out and purchase a new black suit? I don't have much money. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Or should I even thank her for saving me? ...because I really hadn't invited her over--the neighbor girl. She just sort of snuck into my apartment while I was watching television...and choking on my cough drop also I suppose.

I suspect that she only stopped by after a long day of unsuccessfully stalking me; since I hadn't gone outside because of my cold, she didn't catch a glimpse of me as she usually does. I was only lucky that she stopped by then...in time to punch me in the chest and dislodge the cough drop.

But, alas, how can I thank her without leading her on? I verbally expressed my thanks immediately afterwards as well. Should anything else be done?

And don't tell me to lock my door; I often have been locking it because of that girl, but in my ill state, I must have forgotten...

I got pasta at an Italian restaurant...It was great. The vegetables that they used to decorate the outside of the plate were fresh! I wanted to eat them but I don't know if it was proper etiquette. Someone took a lot of time carving them just so.

It is the "season of giving" after all. What sort of items should I
include? Should I write "Happy Holidays" on the trash bag?!! Can I itemize it and write it off on my taxes?

My husband wants to exchange gifts for our first wedding anniversary tomorrow. I don't think it's necessary to give a gift, but only to celebrate with a dinner at a upscale restaurant (which is a gift from my inlaws). The other thing is that my husband is practically laid off, so we don't have extra money to spend on things we don't need. Help!

Does anyone ever feel trapped in their own home..??
Im a girl and my parents are very over protective. They log everytime I go out and have only one friend, where I work.

I am indian and parents are very cultural........

I hate eating alone, and I'm not trying to pick you up, I just want someone to sit with for lunch.

What should I say as intro to entice you to invite me to join you for lunch? Remember, it's lunch break, not a pick up, and I just want some company.

What would you do if a coworker entered your office to speak to you and you clearly heard them pass gas as they were speaking, yet they did not acknowledge it, nor miss a beat in their conversation?

Society in general looks down upon underage sex and teenage pregnancies but at the same time it judges or criticises a person for being a Virgin when they are past the age of 21. Society in general looks down upon premarital sex but once again judges or criticises a person for being a Virgin when they are past the age of 21. Is Society confused about morals and values?

They say "Thank you Sally, is there anything else today?" and my sister feels this is disrespectful. Today, she and her husband went to the bank and my sis deposited a large sum into her own account. At the end of the transaction, the teller said "Thank you, MR WHOZIT. Is there anything else today?" even though she hear my sis calling him Joe. She was really mad. She says it's disrespectful to call a person you don't know by their 1st name without permission, and especially calling a man MR but calling the woman by the first name. What to DO? What to DO?

I was out with a group of friends for happy hour and one of the guys in our group was hungry, so after a table of people left, he saw they left behind a few pieces of pizza.

Before the waitress had a chance to clear the table, he grabbed the pizza and ate it.

We all just didn't know how to react ... how would you have reacted?
