Dear Abby When is an 'affair' more than an affair? DEAR ABBY: My mother and I are having an argument about “affairs,” and we hope you can settle it. 1 am over 21 and have a gentleman friend with whom I’ve been going for some time. 1 told my mother that he and I had been intimate, and she insists that I am having an “affair.” I say I am not-that one of the parties must be married in order to call it an affair. Please clear this up for me. PERPLEXED IN WESTERLY, R.I. DEAR PERPLEXED: Would you believe Webster? He defines an “affair” as “a romantic or passionate attachment typically of limited duration.’ In other words, it’s just a passing “glandshake.” * * * DEAR ABBY: Thank you for helping to get the Living Will legalized in Georgia. It’s long overdue. I stood by helplessly and had to watch my terminally ill mother suffer for months when she begged to die. She was in her 90s and had always been such a proud and independent woman. How I wished I could have disconnected all those machines that kept her alive long after her life held any meaning. Yesterday I went to an antique shop and asked the owner if I could come in and browse. She said, “Please come back later—we are just about to take Kifi to the vet to be put to sleep.” In her arms she held a beautiful little white poodle with a bright pink ribbon in her hair. Her nails were painted matching pink. The woman said, “Fifi is very old. She’s incontinent, lame and nearly blind. The vet said she should he put out of her misery.” (Lucky dog!) Abby, I agree with you. We all have a right to die with dignity. I for one will never go to a nursing home where people are alive but not living. I don’t want my grown children to say, “You go to see Mama this Sunday. I went last week.” RUTH IN ATLANTA DEAR RUTH: Well said, dear lady. My warm thanks for a letter that speaks for many. * * * DEAR ABBY: Can you help me? I don’t know who has the problem—my husband or me. He is 65 and retired. I am 63. He has two beers every day with his lunch, then he takes a nap. Before dinner (on an empty stomach) he pours himself two or three 4-ounce vodkas on the rocks. He has three to five 8-ounce glasses of wine with his dinner. Socially he drinks more. At a recent party here, he drank three 3-ounce glasses of vodka in 4 1/2 hours. (He said he didn’t think he was overdoing it.) Before we go out for a social evening he has one or two “quick ones” — usually vodka on the rocks. He sleeps between 10 and 12 hours a day. We have no sex life. He’s getting what I call “spacey.” His mind is slow, but he says I don’t explain things very well. Also, his memory is poor. We can have two conversations on a subject, and he can’t even remember talking about it. Thank you for your time. HIS WIFE DEAR WIFE: Your husband is an alcoholic, and if you care about him (and 1 assume you do or you wouldn’t have written), your problem is him. No one can help your husband unless he (a) admits he has a problem, and (b) wants to do something about it. Help is as near as your telephone, and the number to dial is Alcoholics Anonymous, but your husband must dial it. If he refuses, I hope you will call AlAnon, and learn how to live with an alcoholic husband and possibly persuade him to seek help for himself. I wish you both weil. * * * (If you put off writing letters because you don’t know what to say, get Abby’s booklet, “How to Write Letters for All Occasions.” Send $2 and a long, stamped (37 cents), self-addressed envelope to Abby, Letter Booklet, P.O.
