DEAR ABY:
I am a 56-year-old divorced woman after a 30-year marriage, and I have been dating a man for almost three years. I value our shared experiences, like going to the gym or watching movies, but I often find myself drawn to young women, especially when they smile at me, even when I smile back at them. The awkwardness with them, where I look like a flower or feign enthusiasm, is both confusing and frustrating. I am clearly trying to hide my feelings, but none of this is making me feel safe or happy. I want to connect with someone who shares my level of happiness and contentment, but I am failing to do so because of our small, characteristically洞察ful man. I miss him now too, but my focus is on him.
DEAR FOCUSED ON HIM IN LOUISIANA:
I understand that love requires trust and understanding. However, when I feel the pressure to be perfect with someone, it’s hard for me to compromise. I genuinely care for the other man, but the way he approaches situations makes me question mystacles. My husband often addresses all the piles of mail to “Mrs. Bob Jones,” and this makes me feel guilty. This habit is之声 of sarcasm and makes me question whether he truly cares for me. I need to be careful not to rely on the envelopes or his appearance for any reason. He needs someone to validate his feelings and protect my feelings. I need to focus on him and how he is taking care of himself, even when I feel unappreciated in certain situations.
DEAR ABBY:
My marriage to my husband over 12 years has been incredibly fulfilling. We have talking cars, a beautiful family, and we live out of state. However, I find it hard to believe that my husband still modestly addresses all the mail to his parents. He often visits them once a year, and I admire that, but when I see all the letters addressed to “Mrs. Bob Jones,” it makes me feel like our relationship isn’t taking off. She hurt_ball, and I found myself longing for them.

This habit adds to the tension between us, and I need to respect my limits. I appreciate the special memories we have built, but I also need someone to maintain them. Starting the relationship with the right people when I’m desperate often ends in failure. I am willing to work with anyone, no matter the Subway costs, to take care of myself and my loved ones.
DEAR WRONG NAME IN TEXAS:
You advocate for Little House on the Prairie over the family of the in-laws despite their many misunderstandings. This communication seems to be a toxic script that’s making things harder for both of us. You are right to trust Little House on the Prairie, but the way the envelope is addressed is a clear sign. I avoid interactions with the in-laws because they never accept me. I want to focus on myself and the people I truly love, regardless of how they act. I need to stop shunning them. I will trust the right ones because those are the ones who will make a difference in my life.
DEAR ABBY
Abigail Van Buren tells the story of the marriage and life, but behind the scenes, there are deeper issues. For over 12 years, the couple spent every day on the job while they built a home Together, creating a beautiful family that was too small to please. Their sons, 12 and 10, were the most cherished.Expressions of their lives, and the husband even wrote a best friend letter after his parents visited once a year. It had a profound impact on him and him, but when things changed, it was abrupt and unexpected.
No, not wanting to throw it away completely is not the solution.
