And what’s there but a red envelope addressed to DH, almost definitely a Valentines Day card from a woman he knows. He claims to be “just good friends” with this woman, but a Valentines Day card???
I didn’t open it. This woman loves to send little cards and notes- she sends postcards all the time, which is weird, but at least I can read them. There is nothing obviously inappropriate about the postcards, but it’s stilll weird...
I’m sure he’ll just brush it off as “no big deal”. But it is a big deal, right? What do I say to DH? Or do I just let it go?

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![]()
