Ask Hank – Missteps, Mistresses and Misfortunes

Dear Hank,

I’ve been stringing along this lovely mistress for over a year. How do I tell her that my wife and I are now expecting triplets? We spent an in vitro fortune to get them, so I can no longer pretend she’s dying of lymphoma, so what should I do?

Should I tell her it’s the gardener’s babies and rock her out another 7 months? If so, how do I back out of it then? Should I fake my own death? Once the triplets come I can’t afford her apartment, let alone her maid. Should I tell her I’m a spy?

Counting on you to get me through this.

Nice try, Tiger. You’ve apologized . Move on.
