On today’s show, we take your questions on awkward asks about whether partners are brothers, handling someone who never stops talking, and how to decipher a thrift store find. For community members, your question of the week is about thanking someone for a gift you can’t eat. Plus your weekly etiquette challenge, salute, and a postscript segment where Lizzie interviews dating and life coach Michelle Wax.
