Dear Gabby

Dear Ann Landers: I am not a famous politician or a member of the British royal family. I'm just one of the millions of women you have written about over the years who cheated on their husbands. I was luckier than most. I have a wonderful man who was able to forgive me. We have two beautiful childre...

DEAR ABBY: I am a woman in my early 40s, and I been involved with "Rick" for so many years I have lost count. He has been separated from his wife since before I met him, but he has not divorced her.

Dear Ann Landers: I am happily married to a very good man, but for the last several months, I have been fantasizing a lot. I daydream about making love to a refrigerator repair man, a young life guard at the beach and a potential employer who is interested in a combination secretary-playmate. All th...

Dear Ann Landers: For the last 18 months, I have been dating a man in his early 40s who has never been married. Things were going well until I discovered by opening one of his phone bills that he had been having phone sex. It didn't seem to be all that bad until I started to call the numbers that ap...

DEAR GABBY: Is this serious? It's not funny enough to be a joke. It does seem ridiculous, though. You take the enabler thing a bit far. In these letters you implicate a man in causing his wife's affair, for no good reason as far as I can tell. Just my feedback, but it seems as if things are mighty b...

Dear Ann Landers: I've been reading your column for years, but never dreamed that one day I would write to you. I am hoping you will print my letter so my husband will see it. I know he reads your column every day, and I'm not getting my point across. "Pat" seems to be drinking more beer than ever, ...

DEAR ABBY: I recently transferred to a new office, and I have never seen so many people who are experts on what should or shouldn't be done.

This is my first coaching job and for some reason, some of the girls on the team are flirting with me and looking very suggestive. When a girls gives me "that look." I'm both troubled a...

Dear Ann Landers: I am having a problem with my next-door neighbor. When I moved into this condo two years ago, Martha was very friendly. I felt comfortable having packages delivered to her if I was not home. We were cordial but not chummy. And that's the way I wanted it. That changed a few months a...

DEAR ABBY: I witnessed a theft and told a teacher, who promptly informed the cops. I feel terrible about it—like I’ve betrayed the friend who did it. What should I do? —WONDERING IN FLORIDA DEAR WONDERING: First, forgive yourself. You did the right thing. While your friend may not appreciate it righ...

DEAR ANN LANDERS: Please settle a disagreement. It could save my relationship. Recently I attended a business conference with my boss and received a call on my cell phone from my boyfriend. I told him I couldn't talk and would call him back. He asked if my boss was here, I said, "Yes, he's sitting r...

Dear Ann Landers: Two weeks ago, I walked in on my 17-year-old daughter having sex with her boyfriend, "Justin." They will both be 18 in two months. They are good kids and plan on going to college together next year. I knew it would be pointless to lecture them, because as you so wisely said in your...

Dear Ann Landers: I have been dating "Clive" for five years. He is intelligent, a great conversationalist, fun, generous and has a great sense of humor. He gets along well with my family, and I am quite content. Here's the problem: Two years ago, Clive admitted he had slept with another woman after ...

Dear Ann Landers: I am 23 years old and have been dating "Charles" for eight months. We are quite serious and contemplating marriage. After a heartfelt conversation yesterday, Charles informed me that his parents expect his bride to sign a prenuptial agreement, which would bar me from recovering any...
