- Share photos and videos with an older relative reluctant to travel.

## Summary

An advice columnist urged a woman who fears she may have an affair with her best friend’s husband to end the friendship quietly before moving away. The advice matters because it focuses on setting clear boundaries and leaving without a confession that could cause unnecessary hurt.

The woman has known the married couple for more than 40 years and says the husband has cheated before. In a separate letter, a first-time grandmother asks whether she is wrong to move from California to Texas to spend more time with her grandchildren; Abby says she should not pressure her elderly mother to travel, and suggests sharing photos and videos instead.
