Dear NN,
My wife calls me kaNNa sometime. I somehow feel uncomfortable, when she calls me kaNNa. How do I tell her without offending her?

Dear Raw.Man,
I think your wife is watching lots of Visu movies in KTV. BTW I hope your wifes name is not Radha. If she is not radha, try calling her Radha everytime she calls you kaNNa. Definitely any girl will go mad, if you call her by some other girls name. In case your wifes name is radha, call her as Rukmini or meera. Try it. It might work.

Dear NN,
Am not sure of you have observed this. Sometimes after the handshake, the opposite person doesnt leave the other persons hand. Its kind of odd, and embarassing when they extend holding my hand. How do I get my hand back?

Dear Shake.R,
I sympathise with you, since have been through same situation many a times. You can try any of the following
1. Pretend you are receiving a call/sms. But there is a risk here. The other person might ask for your cellphone no, in case he/she doesnt know it already.
2. Try sneezing or atleast act. Natural instinct works. I dont think anyone will try to grab your hand, after you sneeze
3. Try scratching your earlobe. Well. Scratching anywhere might help. But scratching earlobe(ofcourse yours) is supposed to be the most decent scratching.
