You Are at work on the night shift. I never wanted you to take that shift and we argued about it. You thought it was Well Worth the extra Money. 1 told you 1 did no to care about the Money that id rather have a Normal family life. But i lost the Battle. Our children Are sick of hearing me say a a Shah a your father is they can to bring their friends Home after school or practice the piano. I can to have a table of Bridge or the Garden club meetings Here. The years slip away so rapidly. We seem to be growing further apart. Then there a your health. I look at you and see a tired Middle aged Man who needs regular hours regular meals and a regular routine. I realize you Are doing what you think is Best for me and the children but you re wrong. Will you please reconsider i love you. Your wife Here a the second letter which i mailed july 1,1975 dear Jack when the judge said a divorce granted a you vaguely dear Abby editors note Abby is on a two week vacation. Following is a selection of some of her favorite past letters dear Abby our 24-year-old son is engaged to a Beautiful but spoiled 21-year-old girl. She has broken two engagements one after the wedding invitations were mailed and now she has asked our son for More time to a think things meanwhile the invitations Are supposed to go out next monday. We have counselled with our minister and he is All for letting her a think it Over a but our son is trying to talk her into going through with the wedding on the scheduled Date. Her parents Are no help at All and Are pushing for the wedding As planned because they would like to get this spoiled flighty girl married and out of the House. Also they Are very fond of our son. What should we do Detroit dilemma tuesday August 27, 1991 resembled a Man i used to know a but you looked about 40 years older. There is no Point in going into it but 1 wonder now if you could have gazed into a Crystal Ball and seen what the future held would you have done things differently our children View you As a stranger. You missed out on All the fun when they were growing up. The few Good friends we had eventually dropped us because we could never seem to get together. So now our marriage is Over. If it had been another woman i would have Felt better. But it was something far More insidious a that night shift. Good Bye and Good Luck dear. Your sex wife dear Friend thanks for sharing your sad Story. Perhaps someone somewhere will learn from it. Dear Ann Landers. Our son is 21, a College Junior and a serious student. The Young woman he has been dating since his freshman year is very attractive Well mannered studious and i like her. The problem my husband knows they have been having sex for the last year at least and he really despises the girl because of it. If she were our daughter it might be understandable. But Why my husband has these hostile feelings toward her is beyond me. They Are in love and plan to marry. I hate to think of the trouble ahead for this girl because of my husbands irrational attitude. How can i help a trouble a-brew1n�?T dear brew done to argue with your husband about the situation. Just keep the lid on. Irrational people Are unreachable. Lets Hope dads anger subsides. If not hell find himself the victim of his own isolation. C creators Syndicate dear dilemma i agree with your minister. I would give the Bride All the time she needs to think it Over. There Are worse things than a late wedding. And one of them is an Early divorce. Dear Abby i met a very attractive eligible widower last Winter and we be been keeping steady company since. My Only complaint is the Way he keeps talking All the time about Mildred his deceased wife. I never talk about my deceased husband. Outside of that he is a decent Man and we get along just Fine. He has asked to marry me but this is the Way he proposed to me a How would you like to take Mildreds place a undecided dear undecided if he has a sense of humor Tell him that since Mildred is in the cemetery you done to want to take her place. But if he wants a new life and a new wife you la consider it a providing he quits talking about Mildred.
