Dear John,
My friends keep complaining that I spend too much time with my boyfriend. They say I never
hang out with them anymore. I don't want to lose my friends, but at the same time, I want to
see my boyfriend as much as possible. What would you suggest I do?
__________________________________________________________________________
My advice would be to go out all together, no every day but sometimes and don't forget talk whith them so they aren't stupid and that you need time with your boy friend

Dear John,
I'm having a real problem with my roommate. I like to keep our apartment clean, but my
roommate is very messy. She throws her clothes and stuff all over the place, while I'm trying
hard to keep the apartment neat and tidy. What do you think I should do?
__________________________________________________________________________
If I were you, I'd runaway from your roommate and have a new cleanner roommate.
