Dear Abby: 'Mustache' doesn't make 16-year-old feel like the bearded lady

DEAR ABBY: I am a fairly attractive 16-year-old female. I have, I think, a good personality. I do have a problem, however. I have a “mustache.” I am of Lithuanian descent and have fairly dark skin. I don’t really need advice on how to get rid of it because I am already familiar with most of the methods both permanent and temporary. But what does one say to people who comment, “Did you know you have a mustache?” MUSTACHED DEAR MUSTACHED: You appear to be quite comfortable and self-accepting of your mustache. Congratulations. You ask what one says to

DEAR ABBY: In all the years I’ve been reading your column, I’ve never come across a problem like mine. Maybe you or one of your readers have been in a similar situation and can tell me how to get over this nagging, regrettable experience. Last summer I went to my 50th high school reunion. It was wonderful seeing classmates I hadn’t seen in many, many years. We had the banquet at the country club, and each person was asked to stand and give a 50-second verbal resume of what he or she had done in the last 50 years. That was pretty tough for me because I never could talk in front of a lot of people. I started out OK, telling about

how I married my childhood sweetheart right after graduation, went to live on a farm (which I loved), and even after my husband’s heart attack less than a year ago, he was now working hard as ever. I said we were building a golf course that I hoped we could finish if I didn’t kill him first! Everyone laughed. I sat down real fast when I realized what I had said. I was devastated all evening and ever since, because I had meant to say “if he didn’t kill himself first” (from all that hard work). I can’t forget that terrible blunder and I’m wondering what my classmates must have thought of me. The next day, I tried to tell a few people what I really meant, but I
