Dear Flora: COVID Job Scams
Dear Flora,I was laid off from my last job due to COVID-19. Ever since, I've been looking for work, but it's been really hard to get an interview for anything. I've been sending resumes and applications for months, and so far have had three interviews in as many months. One didn't even answer, and the other was an almost immediate rejection. But the third was interesting, and I'm weirded out ... ...more

Dear Flora: Rescue Dog and a Cheating Quandary
Dear Flora, I have a pit bull that I rescued a few years ago. She's very sweet, but nervous around men specifically. My brother came to visit recently, and moved too fast toward her. Now he's telling the whole family how dangerous my dog is because she growled at him. I'm working with a trainer on her bad habits, but I don't like that my family is now telling me to out her down. How do I ... ...more

Dear Flora: Unwilling Mommy & Teen Birth Control
Dear Flora, My husband and I have been married for 7 years. We both have great jobs, and lots of time off saved up. We talked about starting a family before we got married, and decided to wait until we got more settled. Now is as ready as we'll ever be, but I'm still not sure I ever want to be pregnant. We're technically 'trying,' but I'm still secretly on birth control. Now he's talking ... ...more

Dear Flora: Polyamory and PPD
Dear Flora, I've been with my husband for 8 years now, married for 3. If it matters, I'm also a man. We've always had a satisfying sex life, and I'm very happy with him. I feel like we have always communicated our needs well, and during a recent heart-to-heart, my husband communicated a need that I'm not sure how to handle: polyamory. We've had threesomes in the past, but it was always with ... ...more

Dear Flora: Estranged Dad and Grandma's House
Dear Flora: Six months ago (before COVID,) my biological father got really sick. He went downhill really fast, and died two weeks after his diagnosis of kidney cancer. I tried to feel sad, but I never even met him until about a year ago. At the funeral, I felt... nothing. Am I just a jerk of a son, or is this normal? My mom left him because he was abusive, but I have absolutely no memory of ... ...more

Dear Flora: Black Lives Matter and LGBT+ Teens
Dear Flora,I am a white woman living in the U.S. I have been following the Black Lives Matter protest, and I want to support the cause. However, my job is very public, and my work contract forbids me from engaging in the protests, or even writing online about controversial issues. But I know that staying silent doesn't help anyone, and I think it's important to help by using my platform to ... ...more

Dear Flora: Wedding Uninvitation and Traumatic Boyfriends
Dear Flora, I've been friends with "Ben" since we were kids. There's never been anything more than friendship between us, because I am a gay woman. His fiancée "Tina" hates me despite this. I got an invitation to their wedding, but now, only one week away from the date, Ben has told me that I can't come. I know Tina is behind this, and I already got a gift and my outfit for the wedding. I'm ... ...more

Dear Flora: Secret Baby and Unwelcome Dog
Dear Flora,I'm planning to move in with my boyfriend soon, and he doesn't want me to take my dog. He keeps saying that my dog, who is admittedly really big, will be too much of an expense for us, and that we won't have the room in our apartment. She's also pretty old, and has never lived away from my parents' house, and likes the company of my younger dog, who is a breed the apartment doesn't ... ...more

Dear Flora: Politics and PhDs
Dear Flora,I'm almost 30, and recently I've been butting heads with my dad a lot over politics. It's election year, so he likes to go off about his conservative politics that I don't agree with, but if I offer sources and explain myself and my views, he just dismisses my politics and calls me a stupid liberal. I don't want to fight with my dad, but I'm tired of having to hear him out when he ... ...more

Dear Flora: Leftovers and PTA
Dear Flora, My boyfriend is great until it comes to food. The man will not eat leftovers, but also does not cook, so it is takeout or me cooking every night. He makes faces like a toddler when I try and do leftovers for dinner, and lately I just give up reheat something for myself and leave him to order take out for himself. This wouldn’t be a huge issue, but take out is expensive. I want to ... ...more
