Dear Alisa and Gina,

My boyfriend wants his parents to meet me. This is a big step for us and I’m really looking forward to it. The only problem is I have a dog whose name is Fred and my boyfriend’s father’s name is also Fred. I’m afraid his dad might be insulted. What’s your advice? - I Know This Sounds like a Sitcom

Start calling your dog Fido immediately. He’ll never know the difference. ~ Gina

This is just the first of many opportunities you’re going to have to let your boyfriends parents get to know you. I say, tell it like it is. Let the Freds meet openly. ~Alisa
