...und wieder schnell ist er schon gar nichts mehr für mich!

Oh dear. Things must be getting bad in the Waldner household — Arabella has taken to writing to mX for advice. 
 

 

 I bet "Honest" is Zdenka.

Well spotted (even if acuity betrays a certain tragicity) and very funny. It's hardly "honest" to be forging love letters, though, is it?

What's more tragic - that I spotted the Arabella resemblance, or that I was reading the column in the first place?
(Neither it is honest to reply anonymously to your sister's cry for help, but the response struck me as the kind of thing Zdenka might say, right before calling her sister a coquette and flouncing out of the room.)

Ah Sarah, you're very brilliant. Please post this to the mad scene page in its entirety, I can only post the link!

Tragic is spotting the resemblance. Everyone has moments on a train or whatever picking up a dog-eared MX. That's probably just desperate.

In fact I deliberately obtain and read it (the paper, that is, not this column in particular) every evening. Make of that what you will.
