Dear Queenie,
After my mother died my father got a condolence card from one of my brother’s ex-girlfriends. Now he says they have become good friends and he can really talk to her.
My brother and I don’t like this. We think we should be the ones to comfort him in his time of grief and him to comfort us.
Queenie, are we being unreasonable?—In Mourning
Dear Queenie,
My married brother has been cheating on his wife and the whole family knows about it except her. He expects us all to keep quiet about it because we’re his family and “blood is thicker than water.”
Queenie, is he right or should someone tell her?—Adulterer’s sister
Dear Queenie,
My wife died recently and her daughter (my stepdaughter) and I have been comforting each other on our mutual loss. She looks just like her mother and I have fallen in love with her.
Queenie, would it be wrong for us to get married?—Lonely widower
Dear Queenie,
My wife knows I take Viagra and when I went off-island on a business trip she insisted that I not take the Viagra with me. What she doesn’t know is that I don’t always need it.
Queenie, should I tell her?—Undecided husband
Dear Queenie,
When I first met my husband he told me he was married but he and his wife were separated and getting a divorce.
After we got married I happened to meet his wife and she told me she had kicked him out when she found out he was cheating on her with me and that’s actually why they got divorced.
Queenie, how could he lie to me like that?—Liar’s wife
