__ By Abigail Van Buren

. 1978 by Chicago Trbune-N.Y. Néws Synd, Inc.

DEAR ABBY: I ama widow with eight children. The oldest is 21 and the youngest is 10, My husband was Killed a year ago and it hit me awfully hard.

Here is my problem. I'm in love. ] am 40 and the kid T'm in love with is 21. (He's a friend of one of my children,} We didn’t intend to get serious — it just happened, and now we have this love affair going. He moved into my house about-a month ago.

Lloved my husband very much, but he is gone and 1 need someone to love. Do you think there is any future

in this love affair? . _™ IN LOVE IN NEW MEXICC |

DEAR IN: I could be wrong, but Ican't see much of a future for you and your young fever, Not so much because of the vast age difference, but because of the emotional state you were In when the affalr took root. Of course you need someone to love— we all do, But for your sake and his, I think the kid should move out of your house and you should move toward men your own age.

DEAR ABBY: A woman in our office is freaking us out with her humming. ‘When she concentrates she hums one low monotonous note. This can go on con- tinuously for as long as two hours or more withoit a

When I call her attention to the. maddening distraction, she quits for a while, then resumes humming again until [could scream, - -

Others have told her, too. Nothing helps. Her hum- ming has got meso crazy I sometimes can hear it wher it’s not there, She's a nice person otherwise, and she's old enough to be my mother, s0 I don’t want to be rude or rough, Please help me and my co-workers.

DEAR GOING: She has undoubtedly developed the humming habit over the years and now hums un consciously. But heblis are learned and can be unleamed, so the moment the hummingbird starta her song, remind her that she's distracting you, And keep reminding her. :

DEAR ABBY: I've been thinking aboig the letter”

from L. IN DENTON, TEAXS who couldn’t figure out how comehis wife knew how to make love so well if she was a virgin when she was married, : ;

Well, I, too, was a virgin when I married but my husband wasn't, and with all his previous experience, he didn't imow peanuts compared to what 1 taught

Ididn’tlearn it anywhere, I just followed my natural instincts and did whatever I felt wasright. It seemed to come naturally. | .

1 was blessed with parents who always showed af- fection for each other and never hid the fact that making love was a normal, healthy part of married life, so when I married it never occurred to me to hold back my sexual feelings, I just expressed them.
