Dear AunT,

Q: When are you comfortable enough in a relationship to give up the facade; to just be real?

Signed: AJ - Tired of faking the funk

A: ‘Houston, we have a problem!’ You started the relationship with a lie and that’s not healthy. You should have been comfortable in the beginning, to be truthful about everything, if you are expecting the same thing from the other person. 

This is not to say that you will not have any surprises along the way but let’s keep it real, you are setting yourself up for some major issues in the near future. Honesty is always best even when it doesn’t feel good, it's still best. You never want to mislead anyone in a relationship. Truthfully speaking, you are not honest with self.

Until next time, I’ll chat with ya’ later!

Love ya,
AunT
