Later that same year, I met the new love of my life, “Laura.”It took Maura a few years to warm up to me even a little bit.
Laura and I are semi-retired and Maura is an adult , and only works when she feels like it, which is fine by me.When the three of us are together, Maura will engage with me, but whenever I am alone in the house with her, she avoids me entirely. Her mother has questioned Maura to see if there is anything she finds upsetting about me, but she won’t answer.She didn’t know her birth parents, so Laura is the only parent she has ever known. It’s just so hard for me to understand.In my opinion, she only behaves civilly with me when her mother is present.
Also, respect her privacy. If she is an introvert who values being alone - then respect her need for quiet.DEAR AMY: My best friend and I have been in political agreement for 30 years. However, he has started watching a politically biased broadcast, and has fallen into a rabbit hole.
