ASK AMY: Long-ago date wants to give belated feedbackDear Amy: I dated \u0022C\u0022 for only a month in 2020. She should make up something really weird: 'Three things, your hands, I could never be with a man with hands like that, that weird whistling noise that your nose makes when you breathe it, and your food preferences. Just too annoying.' Mar-long-ago. Best! Nah but Msngr should show when ppl hv viewed the message without opening it. If you go 2yrs (let alone three months) without her responding, she’s not the one, friend. But to leave a guy hanging (as clingy as two years is) is just wrong. Inform him of why!
