Dear Miss Manners:

My ex-husband's girlfriend miscarried her first pregnancy, and is now pregnant again. It is well known in the community that she was my husband's mistress prior to our divorce. What is the proper response to those who ask me how she is doing?

Answer: "Better than might be expected."

I am new to your life (well, this part of it anyways), were you married before? Is this really your true life situation? If it is, I think that's really BITCHY that ANYONE would ask you that stuff. Some people.

Hey there! No, this isn't about me, it's just a random Miss Manners Q&A I saw in a newspaper, but I thought it was funny. I just love Miss Manners' subtle and biting humor. And YES, I would be mad too!!
