DEAR ABBY: My mom, who’s near 85, has determined to decorate like me.

Each time she sees me, she tells me how “cute” I look, and asks the place I obtained the highest I’m carrying. The subsequent time I see her, she’s carrying the identical high. It’s gotten ridiculous.

I’ve a seashore coverup that’s made to appear to be it’s crocheted or knitted. She went out and located herself one. Imagine me, a girl who’s 85 and severely chubby shouldn’t be carrying this.

What can I do about it?

DEAR ‘TWIN’: Have you ever instructed your mom this bothers you? When you haven’t, it’s best to.

You also needs to supply to buy groceries along with her and assist her discover some “cute” issues that may flatter her.

Years in the past, a gown designer instructed me an expression: “She’s mutton dressed as lamb.” Your mom is deluded if she thinks carrying objects equivalent to yours will make her look as youthful as you. Nonetheless, in the event you inform her that, take it from me — she’ll be severely offended.

DEAR ABBY: I used to be courting a person for the previous two years. More often than not, we loved being collectively. Nonetheless, generally our discussions would flip into heated and hurtful arguments.

He would disregard my standpoint, finally shut me down and make me really feel just like the disagreement was my fault.

After our most up-to-date argument, I lastly determined to finish our relationship.

I’ll admit that a few of these arguments have been alcohol-fueled, which might convey on an accusatory tone regardless of my makes an attempt to make clear any assertion or query I made.

Once I take into consideration how I allowed myself to be picked aside and crushed down by this particular person, it brings on ambiguous emotions figuring out the girl I’m and might be. I additionally marvel how I allowed his habits to change into acceptable.

For the sake of my sanity, I made a decision to interrupt away. However I concern I’ll as soon as once more do what I at all times have achieved to get again into his “good graces” — apologize profusely just for us to repeat the cycle.

I’m depressed and exhausted. I need to keep sturdy and never permit fleeting recollections of previous good instances to cloud my selections about this or any future relationships. How?

— FINALLY BREAKING FREE IN FLORIDA
