Dear Alice,

Someone told me that my brother's girlfriend was dating another guy. I felt I should let my brother know, and after I did, it caused a terrible argument and they almost broke up. Now it turns out that the rumor(谣言) wasn't true, and my brother has stopped speaking to me.

Anny

Dear Anny,

Well you learned a lesson. You shouldn't have listened to the rumor. And you shouldn't have passed it on. Now you have to repair the damage. Apologize(道歉) sincerely and hope that he will forget.

Alice

Dear Alice,

I was at a friend's house for diner recently. During diner, I accidentally broke a beautiful bottle. It was my friend's favorite present. I offered to pay for it, but she refused. Should I have insisted? I still feel bad about it.

Monica

Dear Monica,

I think you did the right thing. It was important to offer to pay for it, but it's not surprising that she refused. Perhaps you could give her a special gift to make up for it.

Alice

Dear Alice,

My son is 23 years old. He finished college last year, but he can't seem to find a job that he likes. He still lives at home, and I'm worried that he's not trying hard enough to get a job and be on his own. Besides, I've been cooking his meals and washing his clothes.
