Dear Eric: We are a group of friends who for many years have been going out to dinner once a month. We are in our 60s to 80s, men and women.
Once we are seated there is this one woman who never fails to take out a tissue and blow her nose but not only blow her nose she will insert the tissue into her nostrils. This is a disgusting habit she has, and you can clock that she is going to do this.
I have given her hand sanitizer after she does this and she will take it but after all of these years hasn’t gotten the hint. I am not the only one who is disgusted by this practice. If she has to blow her nose I think she should leave the table and go to the restroom. I am at my wits end because I do not know how to handle this…
