I don’t know whether to call it jealousy or insecurity. My husband and I have been married almost 30 years. Last year at my husband’s surprise birthday party, one of my friends asked who a certain woman in the room was. When I asked why, she said, “She and your husband have been making eye contact all night, and he seems to be paying her a lot of attention.” From there on, I started watching the behavior between them. My husband participates in a sport with this woman’s husband, and at times...

Please bear with me. I desperately need advice. I dated this girl for a year, and we broke up many times because of religion. We are of two different religions, and she wanted our potential children to be of her faith and only her faith. To me, that seemed a bit unfair. I too want to share in my children's spirituality, and I too want to take them to my church and experience a bit of what I had while growing up. She did not like this idea. She said it would be okay if I took them to my church,...

I enjoy reading your column every week. I want to tell you about a family problem I am having at present. Recently, our youngest daughter divorced after 22 years of marriage and two teenagers.

My big problem is that my husband of 54 years will not accept the situation and refuses to speak to this...

Noah Finkel thinks he might be on Alamo's dreaded Do Not Rent list, but he can't get a straight answer -- or rent a car. How do you find out? I recently rented a car from Alamo. I could make a reservation online, but when I tried to pick up the car at the airport, a representative informed me that I could not rent from Alamo because I was on the Do Not Rent list.
