For fun, a much shorter Tough Love

I’m dating a guy who says my backpacking trips are “running away,” but I don’t feel like I’m running away from anything.

This dude is projecting. Time to run away from him.

Yup. I love this column especially because it deals with a lot of people, including female-identifying people, who do things seriously outside the percived norm, so you get questions outside the usual bounds: there was a recent one from a man wanting to know how to support his female partner in getting better and getting back out there in the aftermath of a day out in the wilds when she tried to help and did comfort a dying victim of a wilderness accident.

I just spent a while reading down that column and just read that one. It got me right here, and the advice is good, on that one and plenty of others. That is one good advice column - thank you for linking it here!
