Thursday mornings on the Karen and Ralphie morning show, Karen gives some personal advice. It’s ask Karen! From problems big and small, Karen gives her take on life, love, work and everything in between! If you’re interested in asking Karen a question, click here.

Dear Karen,

I’m 38 and I’ve been happily married for 6 years. My high school sweetheart sent me a private Facebook message the other day and said he would be in the area around the holidays to see family and wondered if we could get together for a drink and just catch up on life.

I haven’t seen him in 20 years and would just love to reminisce a bit.

There is nothing between us anymore but if I tell my husband that I might meet him…he’ll freak out. So I thought I could just meet him and he’ll never know.

My sister told me…not to meet him…that it was a bad idea. What do you think?

Dear Jill,

My answer is simple. You either invite your husband to go along with you or you DO NOT GO! If the situation was reversed you would be livid if he meet his highschool sweetheart behind your back. If you asked him to go with you and he said “no” but didn’t mind if you went… then the choice is yours. I just think you’re playing with fire.
Let me know how things turn out.

Karen
