Dear Abby...

DEAR ABBY: Two sisters who are both in their late 50s :

_ and who Kad been vory close all their lives are rio longer
speaking t each other,

It all happened when the married daughter of one sister
told the niarried daughter of the other that she could find
her husband on hia “poker night” at a certain motel with
her best friend whose husband traveled a lot. It was true,
and she did. What a meas!

A marriage with four children broke up over this. The

-mother of the girl who spilled the beans claims her
daughter did the right thing in telling her. cousin what she
-kmew. And the mother of the daughter whosé marria, @
broke up says if the cousin had kept her big mouth shut the,
‘affair might have cooled off and no one would have heen

hurt.

The girls (who are cousins) are not mad at each other,
but their mothers are.

Tama friend of both mothers and am trying to get them

together. Who do you think was right, and what should I
lo
A FRIEND TO BOTH

DEAR FRIEND: I think the girl who tipped off her
cousin unwittingly showed bad judgment (even though her
cousin's marriage was probably headed. for the rocks
anyway). But since parents are not responsible for the
actions of thelr adult children, the ill will between the
sisters is uncalled for. Remind them of thie, and if they

can't see it, there is nothing you can do.

DEAR ABBY: My wife is a “she -woll,” When we are out
in public ahe is constantly looking at other men. It doesn't
matter if we are at a restaurant, a ball game, or just
walking down the street. You'd think her head was on a
awive

Then to top it off, she makes some remark about how
“handsome” that one is, or what a nice “build” another one
has. I am no slouch myself as far as looks go..Should I give
her a taste of her own medicine?

SHE-WOLF'S HUSBAND

DEAR HUSBAND: Skip the medicine. But tell your
wife to keep her eyes front or some stranger will
eventually call her bluff and you will be compelled to fight
for her honor. And there's alwaya a chance that you might
lose,
