Don’t get tangled up in ‘no-strings’ affair

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I almost made it to the end of summer without calling my hot ex-girlfriend. She will sometimes take me in for an afternoon of fun and sex, […]

This article provides advice from the column "Miss Lonelyhearts" on navigating relationships with ex-girlfriends and neighbors. The first case discusses a woman who wants casual, no-strings-attached sex with her ex-boyfriend, who is married. The author advises her simply to say "Thanks, but no. You're attractive, but it's too dangerous."

The second case is about a man whose kids are disturbed by noisy teenage neighbors and their late-night firepit. The author suggests putting a visible sign requesting quiet hours, but also building a relationship with neighbors through shared food. The third case involves a man who believes an online acquaintance is his ex-girlfriend who disappeared from his life.

The author encourages moving on and not seeking answers, as the ex-girlfriend likely doesn't want to communicate further.
