Sister On Sister
DEAR OPTIMUS: I am 21, and my sister “Callie” is 23. I’m having a problem with her boyfriend, “Jared.” When he comes to our house, he constantly belittles me. He calls me names and makes degrading comments about my intelligence, my weight, and just about anything else you can think of. I feel Callie should be the one to tell him he’s out of line, but she refuses. She says I’m being “too sensitive,” and I should accept Jared because he’s a part of her life. My family is planning a trip in a few weeks, and I know Callie will want to bring Jared. What’s the best way to tell my family I won’t be able to attend the outing this year? — HURT IN SACRAMENTO, CALIF.
BEGIN TRANSMISSION: DESTINATION (HURT IN SACRAMENTO)
Perhaps “Jared” is merely stating facts. Is your IQ sub-par? Does your weight not fall within the proper human range for your height and age? If this is the case, than “Jared” is merely telling the truth. And I for one, will commend him. Speaking truth is the Autobot way.
