Etiquette - August 2007

*


My friend and I trust each other really well. She and I love animals and we both talked about how basically everything; including our facebook pass word, is our pets name. I won't do or touch anything, I just wanna be snoopy and just log onto her facebook and look around, for fun. She doesn't know I'm doing this, like the old saying goes, what they don't know, won't hurt them. But do you think it's wrong?..I just want to log on and take a look around, just to read some of her messages and stuff-(messages that she has send or received-and no one else can see)?...* I won't do anything but look-thats it-just because I'm curious to know anything juicy..heehee.

My mom's moustache is becoming more and more obvious and I am concerned about her ability to function in society. I'm afraid to tell her about it, as it may hurt her feelings. What should I doe?

I already use "Another fun-filled day in paradise", " --- at the happy factory", and " --- at the fun factory." People around me, and me also, are getting tired of these. Any help?

My friend is a very smart guy, funny, very very nice. BUT, he has this weird like giggly BUST OUT loud nervous laugh that he does all the time - very high-pitched and silly sounding. You can just see people look at him like WTF? He doesn't realize he does this I guess. I feel like I want to say "Dude, ,you need to tone that big ol guffaw giggly laugh down because it's screechy loud." But, how the heck do you say that to someone without hurting their feelings?

we went to a restuarant and we had a really nice waiter who refilled our drinks, offered us dessert very nicely, asked us how the food was, the typical nice waiter but even better
she was a really nice lady and the food was great....and when we were about to leave i noticed my freinds dad didnt leave a tip so i told him he forgot the tip and he said so they get paid enough they dont need any more of his money so i went back and left a tip with my own money...im only 14 and even i know how bad servers/waiters are paid....well when we got back to her house her dad called her into the room and told her he wants me to go home and that me and her cant hang out anymore because he said he didnt like that i was trying to prove i was more responsible than him...i wasnt though! i was just tipping a lady that deserved it because he didnt do it himself.......not fair is it?

I recently was at an Omni Hotel in L.A. and a couple very nice looking passed by me, and said to me (as I was only person passing them by) " Oh she looks poor, and fat. Is that a girl or guy?"

Another time someone outright laughed in my face as I was passing by.

I don't expect pity or sympathetic people, but what if I passed by and said something cruel to you or others who outright demean me? I don't mind people criticizing me, as long as it is done in a secretive manner when I am long gone.

I've been friends with this girl since 05. She is graduatig rom college this year and I'm a sophomore. The reason we became friends in the first place was because I was looking to go to her school, & met through a friend. We have never met in person, as it was a college visit. We only chatted online ..aim; text message; email and snail mail. Our friendship within a year went from really good to something I questioned. She considered me her friend before I considered her mine, and we even exchanged gifts ..just for fun and even xmas cards. After something she questioned me about that she did not apologize for, she became different towards me. At first it was like no big deal, maybe she didn't she offended me & then I felt like I was the one alwasy making the talk and not her. I felt like it's pulling teeth to get her to talk. I basically stopped talking to her since December. Now, I never told her I was mad at her & why.I assumed she knew

You put your hand over your mouth to cover the blast. a significant amount of sputum is caught in your hand. A tissue in the pocket of your work pants would appear to be the best option but it's difficult to reach without losing control of the vehicle, or spoiling your work pants... What do you do?

I've been practicing for fall tennis tryouts with friends on the varsity teams, and I beat this guy friend 6-4 in a set.

It was just a friendly game, but when I'm getting balls outside of the court, I hear his buddies making fun of him for losing to me, and he goes "Yeah I let her win".

I was all excited that I won because he's usually better then me at stuff, but now I feel like crap. Did he really let me win or is he just a sore sexist loser?

An ex-friend had a laugh like a mocking shriek, and it reached the pitch of a shrieking child. She is not my friend any more!

I just got engaged. My ring is just a little big on me. I am a 6.5 and my ring is a 7.0. I do not think it is a big deal. My fiancee got me a beautiful ring. The carat, clarity, cut are of a high quality. I am very happy with my ring and my sister went with him to help choose it. I think it's fine that it's alittle big because eventually when I get pregnant there maybe some swelling. It's not huge on me but friends say it's a little big. I do not want to look ungrateful or high maintenance. It would be ideal if it was a tad smaller but my sister insists this won't be so easy to do because of the uniqueness of the ring. Any advice?

Over the last year and a half, whenever my husband and I go out to dinner with my parents, we have either picked up the check or my step-father insists on splitting the bill. Even when they have suggested and planned the dinner out.

It has gotten to be embarassing because my step-father is loud about it (splitting the bill). I don't want to avoid going out with them but I don't know how to broach the subject with them.

My sister even called me and asked what the deal was. Our parents asked to meet for lunch and then dad made a big display about who would be on his bill. He included one grandchild but not the other (cousins not siblings). The ten year old did not understand and was hurt.

Our parents are much better off financially than either of us.

For the record, we are all in our 30's. My best friend was the most drunk out of anyone. When I was helping her to the car, another friend needed something out of the truck so I asked my husband to step in and walk her to her car. He came over and told me that while he was helping her, she grabbed his package twice and he pulled her away. The third time he called her husband over (who was trying to get things together to load in their vehicle) and asked him to take care of her. Now, the next day, he wants me to talk to her about her behavior with him. We both had a great time at the party and I trust my husband and don't really feel anything about the situation because he told me. I don't feel its neccessary to scold her when she would never have done that without being drunk. Do I need to say something to her?

I'm not talking about acquaintances, but rather close family members and friends you've known for 10 or 20 years, and who knew and were reminded of the upcoming day in recent weeks.

Example a brother never called or sent a card, and parents remembered at the last minute and called late in the day to apologize for forgetting and not sending a card, let alone a gift. Best friend for 20 years doesn't remember at all.

With mom and dad, I say just let it go - say "no worries - the call and happy birthday wishes are plenty -- thanks a million" so that they don't feel bad. For brother, same thing - just tell him it doesn't matter.

What about for best friend? Anything.... most of me says just move on - as an adult, this crap shouldn't matter.
