Dear Queenie,
I have just figured out that the man I’ve been dating for a couple of years has been stealing money from me. I knew the money was disappearing but I only just now figured out that it was him taking it. I know he’s been having a hard time, but so have I and everyone else these days.
Queenie, I really care for him, but now I just can’t trust him. What’s the best way to handle this?—Short of funds
Dear Short,
If you have proof that this man is the one who has been taking your money, you can discuss the matter of your missing funds in a public place or in a group of relatives and/or friends and ask for their help in finding out what happened to it. What action you then take – which could include calling a lawyer or even the police – will depend on how this man reacts to your request.
