Couple in friends group are
constant complainers
DEAR ABBY: We have
a group of friends who get
together most Friday
nights. We go out to eat,
meet for drinks or gather at
one of the group member’s
homes for dinner and
drinks. One person in par
ticular constantly com
plains about everything
every single week.
They don’t like the res
taurant that was chosen, or
the food the host prepared
or the place the pizza was
ordered from. Once, they
kept repeatedly telling the
host they wanted to punch
the host’s son in the face
because he was rude to the
host on his way out for the
evening. This guest’s
spouse also nitpicks relent
lessly.
It has reached the point
the group doesn’t want to
get together anymore
because of the damper this
couple puts on the evening.
My spouse and I haven’t
seen the group for several
weeks now, but we miss
them. Is there a polite way
to tell this couple their nega
tivity is a drag on the rest of
the group, and maybe they
should seek professional
help or learn to keep their
mouths shut? — DOWN
WITH THE DOWNER
DEAR DOWN: No,
there isn’t. But you could
stop inviting this couple. If
you are asked about it, all
you have to say is that you
grew tired of their constant
criticism, which put a
damper on the events.
DEAR ABBY: My
daughter is married with
two children and, so far,
she’s happy with a wonder
ful husband and a beautiful
home. My concern is that
they have hung profession
ally done photos of them
selves, their kids, their
friends and candid images
from their wedding in many
of the rooms on the first
floor, but there are none of
my husband and me or the
other grandparents. Every
Christmas we receive
another framed family
photo of them. What would
you think if we gifted them
a lovely portrait of us? —
UNSEEN IN
Wonderword answer: Let it Ride
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
MINNESOTA
DEAR UNSEEN: I think
it’s worth a try, but don’t be
offended if they don’t dis
play it. They appear to be
so centered on their nuclear
family that there isn’t room
for anyone else in their pic
ture-perfect house.
DEAR ABBY: Recently,
my wife told me her broth
ers have been mad at her
for more than a decade and
don’t talk to her because of
something I said at a family
get-together 12 years ago. I
asked what they were mad
about and what the discus
sion was about that upset
them, but they didn’t say —
they just quit contacting
her. To me, it’s childish and
rude to treat their sister that
way. Do you have any
thoughts or suggestions? —
DID NOT KNOW IN THE
SOUTH
DEAR DID NOT: Yes, I
do. The term for what your
wife’s brothers have been
doing is “passive aggres
sion.” Because your wife’s
brothers aren’t willing to
address the issue, nothing
can be done to resolve it.
This is why I suggest the
two of you — and whatever
other relatives you do get
along with — go on with
your lives and waste no
more time looking back.
DEAR READERS: Time
flies! Daylight saving time
ends at 2 a.m. Sunday.
Don’t forget to turn your
clocks back one hour at
bedtime tonight. And while
you’re at it, be sure to put
fresh batteries in your fire
alarms and smoke detec
tors. — LOVE, ABBY
