Summary

You’re conflicted. But you just don’t KNOW how to approach your problem…especially if you’re not a confrontational person. So sometimes, you just need a little help addressing the situation – and that’s where we come in! We’ll tell you what to text the person, line by line, and we’ll help you resolve the problem…but you have to PROMISE to write EXACTLY what we tell you to. Lisa and her sister are supposed to go wedding dress shopping this weekend. Their mother wants to join, but Lisa knows that isn't going to be a good idea. She's afraid her mother will say the wrongs things and try to be too controlling. So how do we tell her mom she's not invited to this experience?
