98.3 TRY Social Dilemma: Would You Eat Bread That Was Moldy on One End? ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- Today's 98.3 TRY Social Dilemma came from Debbie and it's about bread. Here's her email:  Get the latest, news, weather, sports and community events delivered right to your inbox! Hi Jaime. I had this argument with my daughter the other day and I'm wondering how others feel. My daughter was at my house and I was getting ready to make us some sandwiches. I pulled out the bread and there was a little bit of mold on one slice of the bread on one end. I threw it away and then pulled from the back and got four slices of bread. Well, my daughter saw this and said we could not use the bread at all because of the mold. I told her there was no mold on the bread I pulled out and even showed her. She didn't care...she said if it's on one slice, the whole loaf is bad. I disagree. If it's on three or four pieces, then yes, throw it all away, but it was a little bit on one piece. I say the rest of the bread is fine. We ended up going out to lunch, but I still want to kn...

Ask Amy: Trust issues interfere with married roommates Dear Amy: I am in a five-year marriage that I feel is more like a roommate situation. We hardly ever do things together.Our sexual relationship is almost nonexistent (I’m just not interested in being intimate with him anymore).He has cheated a few times.I only cheated one time, and that was to get back at him.I know two wrongs don’t make a right, but since the infidelity, I often find myself not trusting him.I’m torn up deciding what to do about this relationship.We have trust issues, and now I feel as if we’re growing apart. I care about him, but I’m not in love with him like I used to be.I’m tired of arguing with him every day and want some peace and happiness in my life.I know therapy is what most people would suggest, but I already know what therapists are going to say so that’s why I don’t go.Because of all the issues and the gaslighting that goes on I feel like it’s time to call things off (he sort of agrees with me), but I...
