Dear Abby:

I have three acquaintances, let's call them Xavier, Yorik, and Zebediah. Xavier and Yorik have both told me that Zebediah's advances towards them are making them uncomfortable. I want everybody to get along, but it's not really my business, even if I knew them well. Is there any way that I help resolve this issue without making people feel bad?

Dear Nosy:

As discussed in my last reply to you, you can't make everyone happy all of the time; you just don't have that power. Sometimes, it's best to accept that it really is none of your business and be there if any or all of Xavier, Yorik or Zebediah need to talk, but ultimately, it is up to them to work it out themselves.

How is December in Des Moines? Got your freak on?

Hmm. You could, say, post this question to your livejournal, so that all of your friends can wonder if they are Zebediah. Or, maybe it's just me wondering ...

fine fine fine, I'll ask Citrus (aka Zebediah) to quit pestering Vinny (Xavier) and Kevin Kindred (Yorik).

I'm so confused now...
