Advice by Relationshop™

Dealing with Rude People? Need relationship help?

My customers often have questions about rudeness and verbal abuse. They want to know:

Was I rude? Was he rude? Was she rude?
I think ____, but she thinks ____. Who's right?
Why am I single?
Someone said ____. Was that verbal abuse? If so, why?
Did she insult me, or did I overreact?
Did I insult him, or did he overreact?
I want to say ____ to her. Would that be rude of me?
He or she said ____. What should I say back?

If you have a simple question like those, you've come to the right place.

Advice for all situations: home - work - school - love

I identify bad behavior: verbal abuse, rudeness, plain bad manners. By rudeness I mean (approximately) any behavior that will wreck a relationship because it shows a disregard for someone else's rights or feelings.

I can't solve every problem for $2.50, but often I can back you up by telling you if you're right, which will give you the confidence you need to handle rude people. That boost to your confidence just might be worth the money.

Note: I don't do table manners. I think it's more important to help people with real interpersonal problems.

$2.50 a question. Your money back if I don't know the answer.

Dear Visitor,

We no longer offer relationship advice.

We devoted 20 years of study and thousands of dollars
to set up this website,
but we found that this service mostly attracts people
who don't share those same values.

If you think your money is more holy than your relationship —
if you won't even spend $2.50 to improve it —
if you came here only to see if our service were free —
then frankly you are not worthy of our time,
and you deserve the relationships you have.

Most of our visitors would rather spend four dollars
on a cup of coffee.
Come back and see us when you have a relationship that
means more to you than a beverage.

This advice service is closed.

Need to correct him or her in a letter?
