To Dads -- With Love and Respect

Today's news reported that Americans are spending less on Father's Day presents this year. The economy, with its rising gasoline and food costs, certainly could be a reason for this report. However, I can't help to wonder if there isn't another reason. In fact, I wonder how much of the reason is due to society's low opinion of fathers. We mock fathers, yet expect men to step up to the plate and be providers and role models.

Can a Wounded Guy Change?

Published 07/02/2008 - 12:47 a.m. GMT

Dear Nina: I was reading the chapters offered on your site, which made me want to buy the book, Temptations of the Single Girl. But I was particularly caught off guard by the chapter “Loving a wounded guy.” The non-intentional type perfectly describes someone I know very well. We never dated, but he is one of my best friends. So, what I want to ask is, can someone ever change that or is it like your eye color and basically you’re stuck with it? He is a good guy and will do anything for you, but he basically doesn’t care and when he does things that hurt others he doesn’t have any remorse about it, or doesn’t show if he does. I guess I’m asking it because I worry that he is never going to do anything with his life. He is perfectly content with just getting by.

Other Hosts

Dear PVS, what if you have a friend who, for all her complaining about her vampires, keeps inviting them in and never seems able to say “no” to them?   Is it proper slaying etiquette to offer her assistance with slaying her vampires? Signed, A Wondering Friend

Dearest Friend, t
hank you for this wonderful question. First off I want to say that anyone who “cannot say stop inviting vampires into their lives” and “seems unable to say no” to them is most likely feeling powerless over their vampires because they (as hosts) have not yet accepted responsibility for the invitations they extended to their vampires in the first place.   

The rule is: if we cannot accept responsibility for our invitations, then we will not find our power to revoke them.
