Dear Miss A,
I moved to DC a few weeks ago from the West Coast to begin a new — and great — job. I found a roommate, I found an apartment, and I found a job I really love. But now I’m stuck: how do I meet people (outside of my work in politics) and [...]

Dear Miss A,
I had this best friend. I loved her like a sister and we did a lot together. We were as thick as thieves! One day she stopped talking to me and said that she could no longer be my friend because she could not give me the attention I needed (mind you part [...]

 
Dear Miss A,
I just found out that my roommate (who is not my friend) has a crush on my boyfriend. She told a friend of mine she was after him. She is really thin and I am not, which makes me feel uncertain. When he comes over, she hangs around him and tries to get [...]

 
Dear Miss A,

Dear Miss A,
My best friend recently went through a terrible break up. Her boyfriend of two plus years cheated on her, and was dating around behind her back. She is going through a really tough time, and I am having a hard time being a good friend. I’ve invited her over to dinner, or out [...]

Here’s a message I just received from the woman who wrote in the other day wondering how to meet the “fashionable set”:
Dear Miss A,
Thanks for answering my question. Just to clarify, I unfortunately don’t know anyone who knows anyone in my city. So meeting people the old-fashioned way will be a bit of a challenge [...]

 
Dear Miss A,
I recently moved to a large east coast city, and am interested in getting involved in the charity circuit. I really want to meet the movers and shakers and the fashionable set of my town, which seem to be involved in doing service. I am already a member of the Junior League, so [...]
