 (Nick Galifianakis for The Post) | Dear Carolyn: I get it, we're past the point in this pandemic where it's useful or sensible to judge each other's behavior. But still, what do I do about the friends who say things like, "I'm worried we're going to go back into lockdown," when those exact same friends never went into lockdown in the first place? I basically didn't leave my apartment for 16 months while people I'm close to were only restricted by the closures of favorite restaurants, yet they behave now like it's terrible news that we might have to go "back" to staying home. Do you have a good response to convey I'm not sympathetic and maybe remind them we're all in this together and must do whatever is necessary? — Pandemic |
