Dear Abby Advice Column Fragments Reflect Relationship Dilemmas
A reader describes a 30 year old woman waiting four years for a married man to divorce. The man is 15 years older, has 20 year marriage and children in college. The writer asks how to open the other’s eyes to the truth amid public links and secrecy. Abby cautions love is blind and suggests ultimatums and asset concerns. A second reader praises repurposing a wedding dress into two communion gowns as a family heirloom. A third letter echoes self talk as prayer and personal growth rather than insanity, urging Abby to reassure that talking to oneself can be spiritual and benign.
