Dear Dr. Blanco:
This is the first time I am writing to awoman’s magazine but I need help. Amanda is a very good friend but sometimes this ffiendship is problematic. She is the youngest of five sisters. My ffiend is excessively obstinate and competitive. If I buy a hat, she wants to have a morę attractive hat. If I talk about my gold bracelet, she talks about her Colombian emerald ring. When I com-ment I have had a good day, Amanda's day is YERY good. The worst is when we are with other ffiends. Some of her comments are pure fiction. She says she bought a brand new car but it is reallyjust a newer car. It is not bad to dream but Amanda tells many lies and I do not know what to do. I need a big favor. What can I do to help my old friend? (<:Que puedo hacer para ayudar a mi vieja amiga?)
