I suggest that you keep in touch with your friend. Don’t pick at this sore spot, instead try to re-establish your previous friendly contact. She and the kids might enjoy receiving cards and letters sent through the mail.
Dear Amy: Like many, I’m eagerly awaiting my turn for the COVID-19 vaccine. But I’m faced with a bit of an ethical/moral dilemma.
I’m in a high-risk category, over 65, obese, with high blood pressure (under good control with medication). That will probably put me pretty high up on the vaccine list.
I’m very fortunate in that I have a job where I work from home and can access groceries and other necessities via pickup or delivery. In other words, except for occasional doctor visits, I don’t HAVE to go out.
Do you think it’s right for me to get a vaccine as soon as I’m eligible? I absolutely think health-care workers should get vaccinated ASAP. But what about the people who work in grocery stores, or restaurants, or other places? Is it right for me to get in line in front of them?

Dear Wrestling: If you have no (or extremely limited) contact with others, then it seems most ethical for you to wait for a vaccine. I’m hoping that with wide distribution, this sort of choice might not be necessary.
Dear Amy: “Sugar Mama” didn’t like her boyfriend’s fiscal irresponsibility.
When my wife and I married, we established three checking accounts: Ours, His, Hers. We each deposited equally to “Ours” and it was used to pay all joint and household bills.
Neither of us was allowed to question how the other used their (small) personal account.

Dear Happily Married: This was basically my suggestion to “Sugar Mama.”
