I have opted to cut contact ... but my wife says that she will not abandon this friend in a time of need.
DEAR AMY: My wife is a doctor who, at the beginning of the pandemic, needed to be extremely cautious about her exposure to COVID.
One day we saw a picture of Sarah on social media having cocktails unmasked and indoors at a mutual friend “Carrie’s” house.We called Carrie to ask her to stop these invitations so that we could see our daughter.My wife later told Carrie how angry we were.A few weeks later, Carrie’s husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer. She promptly informed everyone how important it was that they now isolate.
Carrie is now on a mission to paint me as the source of friction in her friendship with my wife, and recently criticized me in front of others. My wife did not defend me.DEAR CONCERNED: You seem to have reached peak adulthood maintaining the belief that you can control other people, simply by asking – or telling – them what to do.
Nonetheless, she chose to violate your stated wishes, and then had the audacity to advertise her choice on social media.
