#413: How do I Relationship?
Hi Captain and Awkwardeers! I have a problem that may or may not be an actual problem and is probably easy to solve, but asking friends for answers gave me nothing but contradictory answers, so I thought maybe you could help.

#352: How do I get my mom to chill out about my baby? (spoiler, you probably can’t)
Hi Captain Awkward, Thank you so much for your wonderful column. My parents are very loving and I have a generally good relationship with them. I see them once a week or so, and I generally enjoy spending time with them. My mother and I have opposite ways of communicating, though: she simply […]

#244: Playdates and friend break-ups
Hi Captain Awkward, I have been meaning to write you for a long time. I had a really long dilemma that turned into a really short dilemma over the last weekend.
