Dear Queenie,
A friend of mine has no problem having men ask her for first dates but they never seem to want to see her again.
She keeps asking me what is wrong with men, but the problem is really with her, but she won’t listen when I try to make her some suggestions, like not talking so much and listening when they have something to say.
According to her it’s always the guy’s fault and never anything to do with her.
Queenie, how can I make her understand?—Worried friend
Dear Friend,
As the saying goes, “There are none so blind (or deaf) as those who will not see (or hear).” Your friend is not really open to advice, she just wants you to agree and sympathise with her. You can keep trying, for all the good it probably will (not) do.
Does she read my column? Maybe if she sees this one she will get the message (but do not hold your breath waiting for that to happen).
