I first realized he was attracted to me when i would see him around town or at a football game and he would always give me Long looks stares. This has been going on for about a year. Charles asked me if i would have lunch with him sometime and i said a maybe a with a smile so in a sure he is going to ask me again. My question do you think it would be All right to go to lunch with him he is really Nice and id like to become friends just friends with him i have Al ready told him that i  go out on an evening Date with him but i see nothing wrong with meeting him for lunch. Do you by the Way in a 20 and single Charles is 24. A confused dear Abby in god or nature and this we need most of All. Dear Ann Landers we would like your opinion. Our younger brother age 34, is getting married this fail. A Jack Quot lives in our parents Large suburban House pays no room or Board and has held the same Low wage part time Job for the last 10 years. He has had two years of College but never looked for full time work. Our parents spend most of their time in the Home they own at a nearby resort. Jacks Fiancee 28, works full time but is paying off student Loans. She lives by herself in an apartment. Our parents have suggested that perhaps a Jiu Quot should move into the big House with Jack after tie wedding. They would let them have it cheap. We feel however that Jack should move out so the folks can sell the House. Mom and dad Are extremely kind and generous but we fear this May be jacks last Chance to grow up and pay his own Way for a change. He certainly is capable of supporting himself but will never make the Effort if he gets everything handed to him. As i was writing this letter i realized that four of our friends Are in similar situations. Yes we know that jobs Arentt plentiful but they done to make any Effort to find work when their parents provide them with free room and Board. Why should they please comment. Troubled in Burnaby .
