Got drama? Tell Tanya all about it

Confused in Kaimuki? Angst-ridden in 'Aiea?

Go ahead and vent. We're here to lend an ear.

Not only that, we'll give you no-nonsense advice from someone who can relate.

Just e-mail or snail-mail us about what's bothering you when it comes to your love life or other relationships.

Feel free to disagree with words of wisdom from someone who has no psychology degree. But she'll tell it the way it is on matters of the heart with sensitivity, sound advice and a sense of humor.

We won't publish your name, but we do want to make sure your problem is legit, so include a daytime phone number in case we need to reach you.

E-mail your problem to relationships writer Tanya Bricking at telltanya@honoluluadvertiser.com, fax (808) 525-8055 or mail to "Relationships," Island Life, The Honolulu Advertiser, P.O. Box 3110, Honolulu, HI 96802.
