Dear Queenie,
My boyfriend of many years died in an accident. Come to find out at the funeral, he had a lot of other girlfriends besides me and was just with me for what he could get out of me.
Now when people who knew both of us together see me they offer me their condolences on my loss.
Queenie, should I just thank them, or tell them the truth so they won’t feel bad for me?—Con artist’s victim
Dear Victim,
You have suffered a loss – if not the loss of your boyfriend, the loss of your faith in him. Do whatever makes you feel better.
