    Men who make these kinds of comments to you are certainly not concerned with your feelings, so don’t worry too much about hurting theirs. I would have responded to his question with “Why do you ask?” Your marital status is none of his business and you don’t owe him a direct answer. If he says things that make you uncomfortable, tell him so directly. A direct comment like: “Your personal questions make me feel uncomfortable.” should do it. If he continues, then you might want to have a word with your supervisor or your human relations department about sexual harassment.

    My mother had a sister just like this. Our family took her in for several months. It was a miserable experience as she was demanding, selfish, and openly flirted with my father. My parents helped her for years, moving her and paying for her apartments. She had two daughters who never contributed a dime to her support. You can only help people who really want help. You are under no obligation to take care of this woman. If you decide to become involved, she may take advantage of you forever.

    I too have had lifelong problems with IBS with constipation. I have been told numerous times : fiber, fluids, exercise. If it were that easy, I wouldn’t have a problem. I finally found a doctor who experiences the same problem and she suggested Amitiza. I did a lot of research and was hesitant to try it, but It is the only thing that has ever worked consistently for me. Fortunately I do not have any of the side effects that some have. Hope this will help some who really have done everything and still have problems.
