Dear Abby: I have a girlfriend (who) recently asked me to be the godmother of her second child. ... My husband is offended that I was asked and he wasn’t. ... He wants no part in the process, which I am very upset about. What do I do?
DEAR ABBY: I have a girlfriend, “Dawn,” who is one of my oldest friends. She’s my only friend who stuck with me through the growing pains and different stages in my life. I married a man who I think is the love of my life. He’s very macho and proud. We have built a life together, and through stepchildren, exes and family -- through thick and thin -- our love has endured.
What do I do? Should I ignore my husband’s feelings, be a good friend and godmother to Dawn’s baby and deal with the aftermath with my husband? -- POTENTIAL GODMOTHER IN ARIZONA He’s dependent on my credit card, which he was only supposed to use for emergencies, but he sometimes uses it for more than that. I pay off the credit card bills and he owes me all the money he has charged on it. He promises to pay it back, and comes up with the weirdest excuses when he can’t.
