Dear Queenie,
Why do you always recommend counselling for people who write to you about the problem they are having with some other disgusting person, usually their spouse or partner?
Queenie, the problem is the way the other person is behaving, they are the one who needs counselling.—Another faithful fan
Dear Fan,
The “disgusting persons” are not the ones who ask me for advice. It would be wonderful if they did, and if they would take the advice I would give them, but that is not likely to happen any time soon – that is part of what makes them “disgusting.”
Meanwhile, the letter writers need help in coping with their situations, deciding whether they want to remain in said situations, and help in getting out if that is what they decide to do.
