Dear Abby I 20-year-old advice still enriching lives today
DEAR ABBY: About 20 years ago, in a very distraught emotional state, I wrote to you concerning my involvement with a young woman. I was .on the verge of suicide and your advice and support saved my life. So genuinely concerned were you that you kept me advised as to where to reach you during a Southern tour you were taking at the time. Much has happened since then, and I want to bring you up-to-date: Recently I wrote a book (my first), titled “Night Stalks the Mansion.” It became a best seller. It’s now in its 9th printing approaching the million mark in sales! Except for your concern and support during a very traumatic time, I would not be alive today, my book would never have been written, and my reasonably rewarding life would not have lasted as long as it has (I am 74). As a result of the book, the above-mentioned lady (no longer young) found me again. She saw me on television and wrote to tell me she had often tried to locate me. She had never married; she has burned a candle for me every year on mv birthday!

So, Dear Abby, two lives in which you played a greater part than you know have been greatly enriched by your kindness and counsel. Thank you and God bless you. HAROLD W. CAMERON, PARADISE, CALIF. DEAR HAROLD: I remember you well. Thank you for writing. Your letter made my day, my month, my year! DEAR ABBY: I was told that you once had a letter from a grown man who wanted to sue his parents for having had him circumcised when he was an infant. He claimed that he was maimed and permanently disfigured for no reason at all, as he wasn’t even Jewish. What was your advice and how did it turn out? I am considering the same action. NEW YORKER DEAR NEW YORKER: I told him he could sue if he wanted to, and if he won he could call it “severance pay.” (P.S. He sued and lost.)

SAVINGS & LOAN
DEAR ABBY: I live with my daughter and her husband. The other night they had another married couple in for bridge, and just as I walked into the room where they were playing, I happened to see the other woman wrapping her bare legs around my son-in-law’s legs! I saw him move his legs away, and then she stretched her legs like they were rubber and very determinedly trapped his legs with hers! I refuse to be in that woman’s company again. I never told my daughter why I dislike this woman so much, so she thinks I’m wrong to have such hate for her friend. Should I tell my daughter? Her husband knows I saw the whole thing, but he says nothing. What should I do? SEES TOO MUCH DEAR SEES: Don’t carry tales to your daughter. If the woman with the rubber legs stretches things too far, your daughter will eventually become aware of it and resolve the matter in her own way.

Now, two great isuvrcllllcy
DEAR ABBY: My husband of 25 years has been playing poker with the boys every Monday night for years. Every time I ask him how he came out he says, “I broke even.” Abby, I wasn’t born yesterday. I know it’s impossible to. break even every time. Do you think he usually loses but doesn’t want to admit it because he’s ashamed? Or do you think he usually wins but doesn’t want me to. know because he’s afraid I might ask him to hand over part, of his winnings? AARON’S WIFE DEAR WIFE: Probably both. DEAR ABBY: I am writing a paper on modern marriage and need your input. Judging from the letters you get, what' would you say is the most common complaint women have about their husbands? Also, what is the most common complaint men about their wives? MADISON, WIS.? DEAR MADISON: The wives’ most common complaint: “My husband doesn’t appreciate me.” The husbands’: “She nags me.”
