Ask Amy: A reader ‘updates’ advice on her dilemma

Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

How do I tell them I am not interested, without offending them?

I stick to my own kind.

– No Thanks

Dear No Thanks: It is fairly easy to say, "No thank you."

But if you truly want to repel these interested men, you could tell them the truth: "No offense, but I'm a racist.”

They should leave you alone after that.
