Nail inflammation, infection after manicures

Friend still obsessed with ex after breakup

DEAR HARRIETTE: My friend has an ex-boyfriend she became quite obsessed with at the end of their relationship — and after. She constantly checks his social media accounts to see what he is up to and to see if he is in a new relationship.
