I’ve been working long hours and feel that I’m a good employee. I get frustrated when I don’t feel appreciated by my boss. Once in a while I’d like to hear how I’m doing or if I’m doing a good job. When the hours get really long is when I most want to hear something positive. Is it ever a good idea to ask my boss how I’m doing? Absolutely! This is a great question because ...
There are just days when I feel like I’m that hamster on a treadmill. My days seem to run in to each other, start the same and stop the same day after day, and I’m starting to wonder if I need a change. I like my job and my life ok; it just starts to seem boring, like I’m living the same day over and over again. Is this all I have to look forward to? I can’t imagine living the next...

I have a friend that always seems excited to make plans to go out but then at the last minute backs out of our plans with some lame excuse or doesn’t show up. She’s lots of fun but should I just give up on making plans with her? If this friend has shown you often enough that she can’t be counted on, that her word and promises don’t have sticking power, then you don’t need to completel...
I’m tired of being single. My life is good but I would like someone special to share it with. Thoughts? Go to my talk show archives and listen to the callers, men and women, who have called with this very issue. There have been so many that I’ve thought I should start my own dating site! Here’s a synopsis of what we’ve talked about: First, you can’t expect to meet someone sitti...
My new boyfriend has a very friendly relationship with his ex wife and it bothers me. They get together for dinners out and talk on the phone often, but he assures me its nothing more. I believe him, but the time he devotes to their friendship still bothers me. There are no children so I feel like there’s no reason for them to keep in such close touch. I’ve been trying to be the unders...
My sister is critical of my decision to work instead of stay home with my two young children. My husband doesn’t make as much money as hers, so if we want any extras I have to work, plus I enjoy my job and don’t think I have the patience to be at home all day with little ones. Why do we have to always fight over this? This can be a hot topic among women, with both factions from both sides of ...
I love my wife of 26 years but it has been hard watching her gain weight over the years. She is now what her Doctor calls morbidly obese. While I’m happy with our life together and her weight doesn’t cause many problems at home, or we’ve just learned to adjust, when we travel her weight is a problem. We’re at the point in our lives where we both want to travel but when we recently took a...
My parents are traveling from out of state to visit me and I’ve been living with my boyfriend for the past 6 months.

They’re planning to stay with me at the apartment. What are my options? Put on your big girl panti...
