Let Your Guests ~
Decide the Gift

: By Abigail Van Buren» _ _

‘9 1978 by Chicago Tribune-N.Y. News Synd, Ine. .

- DEAR ABBY: My husband and I recently moved here .

from another state, and quite by accident we learned that
my husband has 4 niece in a private institution within half
an hour’s drive from our house. (Il call this niece “Nellie."|
‘Naturally we went to visit Nellie.at once, after which we-
phoned her mother (my husband's eldest sister) to tell her:
.we had seer her daughter. Sys oo
-Nellie’s mother objected strenuously to our visiting
Nellio. She said the girl has been'a “hopeless vegetable"
since birth (she is now 28 yearsold) and it would have been,
niych better had we left the family skeleton in the closet
where it belonged instead of digging it up! (We ignored her
wishes and continued to visit Nellie.) ,
: Abby, in the few months we've been visiting her, she has
learned to recognize us and seems so happy to see us. The
, head doctor there told- us that Nellie has improved
physically since we've been giving her our love and
attention, He has even let us take her home on Sundays.
‘The problem is Nellie's mother. She has asked us to stay
away from her daughter. She pays for her support but
hasn't visited her once! :
- Should we continue
objections?

WONDERING

‘DEAR WONDERING: I can see only good resulting
from your visits, and I would continue to give Nellie as
‘ much ‘love and attention as you possibly can.

‘DEAR ABBY: My husband racently died. I think It
would have been nico if the doctor who had taken care of
him during hia illaess had sent some kind of. condolence

DEAR ABBY: My husband has five children from a
previous marriage. Some of them are married with
children of their own, and some still live with their mother.

1am responsible for buying, wrapping and sending all
the gifts for their birthdays, Christmas, atc, (He pays for
them, and I must say he is not cheap.) . .

The problem: I am filled up to the gills with his
ungrateful children, who never bother calling him to say,
“Thank you," “Kiss my foot.” ot anything else. For all we
know, the gifts weren’t aven received. I know he’s hurt,
but he.insists on sending them presents year after year for
every occasion. :

should I tell Aim to do it, or should I buy them ail a book on
manners? - ;
TIRED OF IT

DEAR TIRED: I agree, your husband is foolish to
continue sending gifts to ingrates, and I don’t blame you
for balking. But look at it this way—you are doing it for
him, not them, oa,

DEAR ABBY: [am a 39-year-old girl and I have a crush
on a 10-year-old boy. Almost all the girla like him, but he
doesn’t like girls. He doesn't even know they are girls, He
thinks girls are just people. :
Etalked to my teacher about this and she said boys are
like that. ‘“ .
How should I act in front of him? I really, want him to

notica me.

DEAR SERIOUS: Pretend that you don’t notice him. —

And when he realizes that you aren't noticing HIM, he will
wonder why, and will probably begin to notice you. Boys

DEAR ABBY: May I speak on behalf of a group of
‘people who sometimes have difficulty speaking for
themselves? The group I'm speaking of (and for) is usually
sensitive, shy, insecure and gentle. Their problem? They :
are QUIET. They simply find it difficutt to speal up in a
crowd or to make small talk.

I just returned from a class I joined as part’ of my
continuing battle to overcome this problem, While in class,
someone embarrassed me by saying, “Gee, you're quiet!" I
am aware of that fact, and commenting on it publicly is just
as‘rude as saying to someone, "Gee, you talk a lot!”

Abby, please tell your readers that many quiet people
have deeply rooted problems that they are trying hard to
overcome. If people really want to help a qniet peraon,
they should ask him a question, thus giving him a chance to
talk, But.never make an issue of his quietness,

DEAR TOO: The problem of sexual fulfillment can be
compared to world hunger. Although there's no shortage
of food, much of the world’s population is near starvation.
There's plenty of supply and demand—it's the distribution

DEAR ABBY: [am having an affair with a married man
1am really in love with. (I'm 27 and he's 48.) We have been
out in public together, and have even gone to some parties
where he knew we'd run into some of hia friends, (Once wa
even ran into his wife and neither seemed embarrassed!)

We've been going together for over a year, and have
even spent weekends together, so I finally got up the
courage to ask him why he was having this affair. He told
me that he and his wife havaan “open marriage”—a totally
honest arrangement in which they agreed that if either one
wanta to sleep with someone elsa, it's okay. That way
there's no lying and nobody: is hurt. .

He tells me he loves me and “needs” ma and doesn't
want to stop seeing me because I'm averything his wife haa
never been to him. +

Vm confused, If he’s being honest with me, why doesn't
he get a divorce and marry me? ‘ ;

‘DEAR CONFUSED: Because he and hie wife prefer to

.. Btay married, He is being: completely honest with you. He

has made it clear that you “fill a need” for the present. So if
you're angling for a wedding ring, you'r the.sucker. .
