Tell her what you have found in your search for solutions; you might even buy some of the incontinence underwear for her. Recommend that she see her internist to find out if she can do anything else about this issue. It could be that she has a temporary condition that can be addressed."
"Over the past year or so, I've noticed a change in how frequently she needs to use the restroom and the urgency she experiences. There have also been some instances where it seems like she didn't make it to a restroom in time. For example, sometimes she'll run into the house from running errands, but I can see that she's already leaked a bit (or more than a bit)."

He has researched solutions such as adult diapers or incontinence underwear and asks how to share them without hurting her pride. The recommended approach is to ask to discuss something sensitive, mention observations gently, present practical solutions or purchased incontinence underwear, recommend an internist evaluation for possible temporary or treatable conditions, apologize if she feels embarrassed, and reassure her of love and concern for her comfort. A separate correspondent reports longstanding jealousy of a beautiful, wealthy childhood friend, feeling persistent envy and discomfort during conversations.
