Dear Queenie,
My husband gave me a beautiful bracelet and necklace, but I am allergic to the metal they are made of.
Queenie, should I tell him and risk hurting his feelings or just put them away and never wear them?—Allergy Etty Ket
Dear Etty Ket,
Does your husband not know about your allergy? If not, it is high time to explain it to him, or, if he does (or should) know, to remind him about it. Either way, explain the problem to him and suggest going together to return the gifts and exchange them for ones you can wear.
