On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- You moved to Taiwan to be with your politically active girlfriend, but the threat of Chinese invasion always looms large. She's made it clear that she wants to stay and help resist should this ever come to pass, but how can you convince her to flee with you to safety and fight from afar instead?
- Should a rekindled old flame's dedication to an MLM "company" be a deal-breaker? He insists it's not a scam!
- Because you don't have the financial capacity or mental bandwidth to indefinitely support your brother — who struggles with severe depression, anxiety, and self-harm — you need him to step up and take responsibility for his own life. How do you make him understand?
- Your fiancée is so insecure about her appearance that she wants to skip a friend's wedding so she won't ruin the pictures, and has suggested hiring an actress to stand in for her at your wedding! What can you do to get her to see herself as the extremely smart, beautiful, kind, and overall amazing person that you fell in love with?
- You're a high school student with a dream to study abroad. How do you get over the fear of asking your parents for permission and the chance they might deny you this dream?
