Description

The Asking Eric advice column is written by R. Eric Thomas.

Dear Eric: I have a group of four close friends who met in college in the 1980s. Out of the five of us, two of the friends are married and their spouses are also invited when we get together. One spouse has integrated really well and the other, who is a nice person, has some significant medical issues and that’s basically all they ever talk about.
