DEAR ABBY: My husband of five years has confessed to affairs that resulted in two children. I suspected that something was up when after a year of marriage he seemed distant. Despite our almost 15-year age difference, I never in a million years thought he would do something like this. A few months ago, he […]

DEAR ABBY: You would be doing millions of women a great service by telling them about Knitted Knockers Support Foundation. It has been tirelessly working at inspiring volunteer knitters and crocheters to provide FREE soft, light prostheses for breast cancer survivors. Typically, the traditional prostheses can be hot, heavy, expensive and take quite a while […]

DEAR ABBY: My daughter asked me if she should have another child, and based on what I have observed with her first, I definitely feel she shouldn’t. I want a polite way to respond without hurting her feelings, but can’t find the words. She loves her child, but loses patience quickly. She can’t handle it […]

DEAR ABBY: I am 14 and a freshman in high school. I’m not allowed to date (my mother’s rule), but I really like a boy. I think of him all the time. Thankfully, I’m his friend, but he already has a girlfriend. It hurts me to keep my feelings secret, and that he’s happy with […]

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married for almost 11 years and have three children. About four years ago my wife cheated on me and left. After a six-week split, we decided we wanted to work things out. Everything was great — until recently, when she got a job working at a busy […]

DEAR ABBY: I recently started seeing a self-made entrepreneur. He’s intelligent, and basically the most amazing man I have ever been with. Because of his position and stature, many beautiful and sophisticated women throw themselves at him. A friend of his told me that in the months that I’ve known him, he has had sex […]

DEAR ABBY: My daughter and son-in-law have only one vehicle that is running. He works out of town, so he drives it, which leaves my daughter home all day without transportation. Earlier in the school year, they signed up my granddaughter for after-school sports and she has to practice every day. Since my daughter has […]

DEAR ABBY: Earlier this year I moved away from home to move in with my boyfriend. We had been dating for more than a year and were close enough we could see each other whenever our schedules allowed. However, over the last few months I have been second-guessing that decision. I’m noticing things that I […]
