dealing with now has to do with
my first love. We’re both women
and got together decades ago
when it was much harder to be
queer. I ended the relationship
and have regretted it. We’re still
friends, and she responds
warmly when I get in touch, but
I end up ghosting a lot of the
time because I just freeze up
with fear. Any suggestions?
— Anxious

Anxious: You already figured it
out. Just look here. You just
explained yourself calmly,
warmly, sympathetically, in
writing — and if you don’t like
the way you said something,
then you can go back and fix it a
bit before you send it to your
old friend.
Once you’ve explained to her
in a letter that you want to
express your regret over
breaking up, but freeze up with
fear, she can either help you feel
more comfortable starting this
conversation or kindly let you
know she’s not interested.
Progress either way, though her
prior warm responses are
promising. Good luck.

pragmatist weep.
Her approach, I actually
appreciate — especially in this
context. Not the playlist thing,
which I know and care nothing
about (so please don’t ping me
with technical suggestions), but
the general idea of, “This is how it
is, move on,” appeals to me here.
Because that’s exactly how to
proceed unoffended through a
life with someone whose history
is dotted with opportunities to
take offense. Let. It. All. Go.
All of it. You can get yourself
wound up multiple times a day,
or you can remind yourself once
and for all, “She’s just as much
Lisa Smith as she is Lisa
Birthname.” Because she is.
She’s Lisa Regardless.
Not to mention, she had to be
Lisa Smith first (and Lisa Jones)
for her to find you, because
that’s just how it works —
whatever history you get is the
exact history you needed to
create your present-day
circumstances. No Smith, no
you. So let it freaking drop.
If she is indeed actively
connecting speakers while
you’re actively having sex, then
that, yes, is disrespectful.
Among other things.

Hi, Carolyn: I deal with anxiety
that makes it very difficult to
reach out to other people. The
more important the person, the
harder it is for me to reach out.
The specific situation I’m

Hi, Carolyn: I’m
in a serious
relationship with
a woman who has
been married
twice before. Her
iTunes account is
registered in her
married name
from her second
husband. She’s a big music lover
and has hundreds of playlists
with thousands of songs, but
each time she connects her
iPhone to her TV, Bose speakers,
or car audio, it announces,
“Connected to ‘Lisa Smith’s’
iPhone” — her previous married
name — even though she has
been divorced for 10 years and
uses her maiden name in all
other domains. This happens
several times a day and even
happened while we were having
sex.
I have asked her to change the
account to her maiden name, as I
find it disrespectful, but she says
she can’t do it because she will
lose all her playlists. Am I being
immature for feeling
disrespected about this
situation?
— Anonymous

Anonymous: Maybe. Yes. More
important, though: If there were
one quality I’d recommend
bringing to a relationship with a
woman who has two ex-husbands,
thin skin wouldn’t be it.
It’s enough to make a
