Feeling slighted

Dear Queenie,

My parents just love my boyfriend. What bothers me is that they seem to love him more than me. Whenever I have some small problem with him and I ask for their advice, or just want a shoulder to cry on, they end up defending him.

Queenie, is something wrong here or am I just being too sensitive?—Feeling slighted

Dear Slighted,

This is just the opposite of the usual problem I am asked about.

I suspect that your parents are so happy you have found someone they like and approve of that they tend to overreact when you have a problem with him. Try to cut them some slack.
