When I was talking to my parents, my mother explicitly told me that my fiance was not welcome at the funeral, stating it should be “family only.” It is worth noting that the visitation and funeral will be published in the local paper and open to anybody. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/carolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance/2013/05/24/14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html?wprss=rss_carolyn-hax"&gt;Read full article &amp;#62;&amp;#62;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.washingtonpost.com/c/34656/f/636550/s/2c6131d0/mf.gif' border='0'/&gt;&lt;div class='mf-viral'&gt;&lt;table border='0'&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign='middle'&gt;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/twitter/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance%2F2013%2F05%2F24%2F14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Even+in+grief%2C+family+snubs+fiance" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/twitter.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/facebook/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance%2F2013%2F05%2F24%2F14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Even+in+grief%2C+family+snubs+fiance" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/facebook.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/linkedin/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance%2F2013%2F05%2F24%2F14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Even+in+grief%2C+family+snubs+fiance" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/linkedin.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/gplus/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance%2F2013%2F05%2F24%2F14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Even+in+grief%2C+family+snubs+fiance" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/googleplus.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/email/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance%2F2013%2F05%2F24%2F14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Even+in+grief%2C+family+snubs+fiance" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/email.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/165665322074/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2c6131d0/a2.htm"&gt;&lt;img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/165665322074/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2c6131d0/a2.img" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/165665322074/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2c6131d0/a2t.img" border="0"/&gt;</description><pubDate>Sat, 25 May 2013 04:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/carolyn-hax-even-in-grief-family-snubs-fiance/2013/05/24/14d7d130-b749-11e2-aa9e-a02b765ff0ea_story.html?wprss=rss_carolyn-hax</guid><dc:creator>Carolyn Hax</dc:creator></item><item><title>Carolyn Hax: Couple’s squabbling short-circuits fun in their outings</title><link>http://feeds.washingtonpost.com/c/34656/f/636550/s/2c60a483/l/0L0Swashingtonpost0N0Clifestyle0Cstyle0Ccarolyn0Ehax0Ecouples0Esquabbling0Eshort0Ecircuits0Efun0Ein0Etheir0Eoutings0C20A130C0A50C220C3984640A40Ebcac0E11e20E89c90E3be80A95fe7670Istory0Bhtml0Dwprss0Frss0Icarolyn0Ehax/story01.htm</link><description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Dear Carolyn: My husband and I&lt;/strong&gt; get in a fight almost every time we try to do something fun together, either alone or with our kids, who are both under 3.

&lt;em&gt;Dear Carolyn:&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt;My mother is a crazy cat lady. She has been doing better in recent years, down to 15 cats instead of 40 or 50, motivated by the arrival of her first grandchild, my son. We live on opposite sides of the country and it was too hard to travel when she had so many cats. I come home about twice a year and I stay elsewhere due to the odor in my parents’ house.

Three years ago, I caught her (52) having an affair with a 29-year-old aide who came to our house to help with our autistic son. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;One of my first questions to her was, “What did I fail to give you?” We went the counseling route, and as the months passed I knew she would text or write him, but I dealt with these things as they came up. She was repentant and wanted to make it work — and I love her. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/carolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs/2013/05/10/051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html?wprss=rss_carolyn-hax"&gt;Read full article &amp;#62;&amp;#62;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='http://feeds.washingtonpost.com/c/34656/f/636550/s/2bcbe7b6/mf.gif' border='0'/&gt;&lt;div class='mf-viral'&gt;&lt;table border='0'&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign='middle'&gt;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/twitter/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs%2F2013%2F05%2F10%2F051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Husband+has+trouble+trusting+again+after+two+affairs" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/twitter.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/facebook/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs%2F2013%2F05%2F10%2F051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Husband+has+trouble+trusting+again+after+two+affairs" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/facebook.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/linkedin/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs%2F2013%2F05%2F10%2F051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Husband+has+trouble+trusting+again+after+two+affairs" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/linkedin.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/gplus/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs%2F2013%2F05%2F10%2F051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Husband+has+trouble+trusting+again+after+two+affairs" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/googleplus.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/share/email/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Flifestyle%2Fstyle%2Fcarolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs%2F2013%2F05%2F10%2F051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html%3Fwprss%3Drss_carolyn-hax&amp;t=Carolyn+Hax%3A+Husband+has+trouble+trusting+again+after+two+affairs" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/social/email.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/165664371846/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2bcbe7b6/a2.htm"&gt;&lt;img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/165664371846/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2bcbe7b6/a2.img" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/165664371846/u/0/f/636550/c/34656/s/2bcbe7b6/a2t.img" border="0"/&gt;</description><pubDate>Sun, 12 May 2013 04:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/carolyn-hax-husband-has-trouble-trusting-again-after-two-affairs/2013/05/10/051e6fae-ad00-11e2-a198-99893f10d6dd_story.html?wprss=rss_carolyn-hax</guid><dc:creator>Carolyn Hax</dc:creator></item><item><title>Carolyn Hax: To get honesty, invite honesty</title><link>http://feeds.washingtonpost.com/c/34656/f/636550/s/2bc628ca/l/0L0Swashingtonpost0N0Clifestyle0Cstyle0Chax0Ethe0Ehonesty0Eyou0Ereceive0Edepends0Eon0Ethe0Ehonesty0Eyou0Einvite0C20A130C0A50C10A0Cf82a15320Eacff0E11e20Ea1980E99893f10Ad6dd0Istory0Bhtml0Dwprss0Frss0Icarolyn0Ehax/story01.htm</link><description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt;Adapted from a recent online discussion.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt;Dear Carolyn:&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;em&gt;I’m a newlywed, and sometimes I get unnerved [by problems in other marriages].
