How long were they friends? If their friendship predates your relationship with your husband you just need to get over it and stop being insecure.

Oh, I’m tempted to do it, but I do trust DH. He’s a very empathetic guy- I can see this woman having a an unreciprocated crush and he’s too nice to say anything.

But, there is that tiny voice that wonders if I’m missing something.


Said every wife of a cheating husband.

No, no, no! You’re so close, but you blew it. The last line doesn’t scan. Remove “away” and see how much better it reads:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I’m going to steal
Your husband from you

What’s wrong with you? Would you like it your husband read your mail and threw away stuff he thought you shouldn’t receive?

What does throwing it away accomplish? Keep the evidence

Unless she’s grandma, this woman is nuts.

No one sends cards anymore.

I have two lifelong friends (since elementary) who are opposite gender and send cards. One is nuts. The other always sends family photos along with any note.

Trash. Or return to sender. Why is she sending stuff to your house and WHY did hubby give her his address?

She's not Asian, although I suppose it could be a lunar new year card. But that's still weird.



Not if she's in the habit of sending cards for all occasions. It would make sense, actually. In Asia, people give New Year's cards or the little red enveloped with a crisp new bill. In Japan, there's no money, but you have the social obligation to send a card to literally all your private and professional acquaintance.

So what you do is that you open it because you "thought it was a Lunar New Year's card". And who knows, maybe there's money in it



Married people do not receive red pocket money, only single people.


Must depend on the particular region &/or family. I have had 2 Asian co-workers who gave them to everyone in the office & a girl in my college dorm who gave them to everybody who lived on our hall. My nephew (who lives & attends elementary school in a heavily Asian district) had an Asian teacher give them to every child in the class.

I’d open it and blame the kids. “Sorry, hon, Larla thought it was her Valentine’s card from grandma”.

Seriously. ‘ignore that tiny voice in your head’ said no one ever.

Open it and say you thought it was for you or your kid. I would then send a card to the crazy woman thanking her for thinking your family on Valentine’s Day so that she knows you look at everything.
