Daughter
iln Lov’
With Man
By Abigail Van Ruren
DEAR ABBY: My 18-
year-old daughter claims she
is deeply in love with a 30-
year-old man who has been
married and divorced FOUR
times. He is paying child
support to three wives for a
total of SIX children.
How he intends to support
my daughter is a mystery to
My daughter is set on
me.
Dear Abby
marrying him and she refus-
es to listen to me. Maybe
you can get some srnse
through her head. I can't.
HER MOTHER
DEAR MOTHER: Even if
your daughter were interest-
ed in getting some sense
through her head (which
she’s NOT), it would have a
tough time penetrating be-
cause a woman in Iovp
doesn’t THINK — she only
FEELS. I would say the
odds for a successful mar-
riage with this man are like
l.noo to one.
Someone ought to tell your
slaughter that she doesn’t
have to marry every man
she thinks she's in love with.
DEAR ABBY: I am a
"widow" with a living hus-
band. In summer it’s golf.
• My husband plays nine holes
every evening after work.
• skipping dinner with me. I
haven’t had Sunday dinner
.with him since we’ve been
married because he golfs all
weekend.
There is no talking to him;
if I tell him I don't like being
alone so much he tells me
not to "run" his iife. I don’t j
want to "run” it — I just* 1
want to be a part of if.
After golfing all day Satur-
day he is "too tired" to go to
a movie. When the golf sea-
• son ends, he spends his
weekends fishing and hunt-
ing. Do you think I am self-
ish for wanting to spend
’ some time with him on
. weekends! I feel so tied up I
could scream.
Before I was married I
wondered how a woman who
loved her husband could look
elsewhere for someone to be
with. Now I think I know. At
times I wish I could have a
summer fling with a lover.
I’m really not that kind of
person, but I lust don’t get
any attention from my hus-
band
What am I to do? Please
print my letter with your an-
swer. Maybe he will see it
end wake up. AMSTF’’
DAM, N. Y.
DEAR AMSTERDAM: 1 !<
print your letter, but I’m
afraid it will take more than
my answer to "wake" up
your husband. You don’t say
how long you’ve been mar-
ried, but I w'ould eay your
marriage is in the "rough."
You both need some counsel-
ing. If he won’t go with you,
go alone. You two are living
in different worlds.
DEAR ABBY: I don’t
want a personal reply, but
through your column maybe
something can be done about
this problem.
I am concerned about
cough sirup and aspirin com-
panies sending samples of
their products through the
. mall.
! Don’t they realize that
some people have drop-
1 through mall slots In their
'doors, end that small chil-
dren can easily get Into
these packages!
Today I received a RA-
ZOR BLADE sample In a
cardboard envelope that
popped open when I picked It
up. What good does it do for
conscientious mothers to
keep poisons and medicines
locked up when equally dan-
gerous things are sent unso-
licited through the mails!
Today I am going to buy
an outside mailbox, and
maybe your readers will Join
me In writing theee sample
senders a protest letter.
Thank you. HAYWARD,
CAL.
CONFIDENTIAL TO H. P.
In Philadelphia: Your letter
was very much appreciated,
and your daughter's was a
treasure. There is an old
Jewish "blessing" used to
wish another well. It goes
something like this. "May
your children bring you
joy." I know of no finer wish
‘ for you. And I know you
shall have it. Shalom.
