It's certainly not easy to deal with a Karen customer or a Karen coworker, but what about having to deal with being married to one? Or rather, having a Karen in your immediate family? There are several tips and tricks for how to cope with this unfortunate but very real phenomenon. Firstly, find someone else to confide in, whether that's another family member or, ideally, a professional because this Karen is probably going to cause you to go into therapy at some point anyway. Second, draw boundaries with this person. Let that be an important test to the relationship. If you are dating this Karen (or are married to them) and they do not honor your boundaries, you may need to resort to the next tip: run as fast as you can and never look back.
Obviously, we are joking about these strategies because at the end of the day, if you have a Karen in your immediate family, you are kind of irrevocably doomed.
