Dear Queenie,
My college reunion will be happening soon and I can’t decide whether I should go. The man who was my boyfriend in college will be there with the woman he met and married after we broke up and when I see them I try to be friendly, but I just can’t do it even though I’ve had a good life since then.
Queenie, should I go?—His ex
Dear Ex,
You should only go if you can behave pleasantly when you see your ex-boyfriend and his wife. If you decide to go, practise in advance what you will say to your ex and his wife when you see them, and plan to socialise with everyone else as much as you can.
