Q: Wendy is an amputee who called wondering if her boyfriend
"warning" his brother about her before they met was a dump-able
offense or was he being oddly caring?

A: Dr. Cooper´s take was, "I don´t think you need to dump him if you
like him. I think people don´t know how others will react with
anything out of the ordinary with somebody they just started dating.
I´m sure his intention was to make it more comfortable for YOU when
his brother met you for the first time. He didn´t want his brother to
be weird or act surprised or ask any awkward questions to make YOU
feel uncomfortable. I don´t think he told his brother out of
malice...quite the opposite, it was out of caring for your feelings. In
fact, you should be instructing your boyfriend how you´d like these
situations handled. I dated an amputee who wanted the world to know
because he was proud of who he was and loved his uniqueness. Everyone
is different. You need to let your boyfriend know what you want."
