My Question of the Day: Two of your very best friends marry each other, and they spend several years together. Although you’ve known one friend longer than you’ve known the other, at this point you’re very close to them both fairly equally. One day, they tell you they’re getting divorced. As a very good friend to both individuals, how do you handle your friendship with each of them?

My Question of the Day: In the 1989 movie “When Harry Met Sally,” Billy Crystal’s character, Harry Burns, says the following: “What I’m saying is…that men and women can’t be friends because the sex part always gets in the way.”

Why do you agree or disagree with this statement?

My 2 Cents: I disagree with that statement. If men and women set clear boundaries and respect those boundaries, “the sex part” doesn’t have to be an issue, even if there happens to be some physical attraction. Acknowledge that the attraction is there. Be clear that you all will not be acting on it. Then stand on that acknowledgment. It’s when we waiver that the statement becomes true, and we all know about self-fulfilling prophecies. Word.

My Question of the Day: Creshelle comes home from the doctor with good news for her husband, Thaddeus. After several years of trying, she lets Thad know they are going to have twins. Thad is elated and wants to call their parents and tell them the good news, especially his father who so badly wants a grandchild. Creshelle grabs Thad’s arm and asks him to wait. Creshelle says they should wait to tell anyone else until she starts to show signs of being pregnant, but Thad thinks they should tell everyone right now.

Who do you think is right?

My 2 Cents: Even though this is one of the questions I thought up, I still have a hard time answering it. I want to say Creshelle is right that they should wait, but I can appreciate the excitement of Thaddeus. I mean, this is their first child, and they’ve been trying for a long time. This is definitely one of those times when Creshelle and Thaddeus have to work together and come up with a solution they’ll both be happy with. I think, however, I’d have to say it’s best to wait until the first trimester has passed, but you all know I’m not a parent so it’s still hard for me to be certain about that.
