DEAR ABBY: I turned a grandmother 20 years in the past. My first grandchild was biracial, and I believe that’s the explanation my greatest good friend, “Dori,” by no means acknowledged her.

Once I despatched her images by mail just a few instances, they went unacknowledged.

Now, Dori has lastly grow to be a grandmother by means of adoption. Though I’m comfortable for her, it stings that my 4 grandchildren had been ignored.

I’ve despatched beneficiant child items. How do I transfer previous my resentment with out making a fuss?

I don’t need my grandchildren to ever meet her, as I really feel any curiosity could be idle curiosity and never honest. Dori has by no means even requested me their names.

— BITTER IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR BITTER: Why do you consult with this lady as a “best friend”? From what you’ve got written, Dori stopped being your good friend 20 years in the past.

You had been considerate to have despatched her grandchild “generous gifts” (or any reward in any respect).

As I see it, there’s a couple of solution to take care of this example. The primary could be to air your emotions to Dori. The second is to proceed dwelling your life with out her in a starring position.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a lady in my early 20s, and I’ve been courting my man for 2 years. I like him dearly and wish to spend the remainder of my life with him.

He plans to suggest earlier than the top of the yr, and we plan to be married subsequent yr.

Intercourse with him is fabulous. Nonetheless, I’ve a really energetic libido (most likely much like that of a teenage boy), and I’d be good with having intercourse each morning, day and evening. He, then again, is nice with as soon as per week, if that.

I really feel disadvantaged and unhappy. We have now mentioned this, and he claims he is aware of he wants to enhance, however there was no change.

I don’t know if I wish to say “I do” if that is what marriage to him can be like.

I’m afraid of him proposing now as a result of I’m undecided I can marry him if he’s not into intercourse as a lot as I’m. Intercourse is an especially essential exercise in my life. I had superb intercourse with a earlier boyfriend and have really contemplated reaching out to him. (I wouldn’t cheat.)

Should I settle? I don’t wish to miss out on having intercourse as typically as I would like it. It doesn’t really feel honest to me.

I don’t wish to finish the connection as a result of he’s every little thing else I would like. He’s man, loving, beneficiant, type, considerate, humorous, clever, an amazing conversationalist, enjoyable, adventurous, however with nearly no intercourse drive.

Are you able to supply any perception?

— MISERABLE IN MISSISSIPPI

DEAR MISERABLE: You’re younger and, I assume, there isn’t an amazing age distinction between you and your boyfriend. When this in any other case ideally suited man pops the query, your response must be that earlier than you settle for his proposal, you need the 2 of you to have premarital counseling.

Throughout a few of these periods, deliver up the disparity in your intercourse drives. There could also be a couple of solution to resolve your drawback. Focus on this with a licensed intercourse therapist who may also help you discover how one can be extra happy with out your boyfriend feeling “forced to perform.”
