Friends push woman to
date, but offer no input
DEAR ABBY: I’m 37
and still single. I have never
been able to keep a guy
around very long. They
have all given me different
reasons, but the main theme
is that I’m "too independent
and better as a friend." I've
kept some of my exes as
friends, so there haven't
been hard feelings.
I have accepted that I'm
going to always be alone. I
have come to terms with it
and made a fairly decent
life for myself. My issue is,
everyone keeps insisting
there's someone out there
for me. But when I've
asked them to help set me
up on dates or introduce me
to a friend, they haven't
been willing, even though
they've done it for others
many times.
I "get" that I'm fat and
not attractive, so maybe
they don't think I'm worthy
of dating their guy friends.
But how do I get them to
stop pushing me to date,
especially when they won't
help?
I also hate it when they
ask me why I'm not a mom
yet when I would be such a
good one. Uh, hello! It
takes two to make a baby!
I have lost friends over
this since it's tough to hang
around with people who
pity me for being solo and
can't accept me for who I
am. What do I do? —
LONELY, BUT OK
DEAR LONELY: Tell
these friends you know they
think they are trying to help
when they say these things,
but the truth is it makes you
feel terrible and to please
stop.
Next, recognize that the
time has come to enlarge
your circle of friends.
While it's true there may be
a special someone out there
for you, the chances are
slim to none that he’ll find
you hanging out with this
group.
You are by far not the
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
only overweight individual
in this great nation of ours,
and many of them are hap
pily coupled up. Nobody
has everything. People who
focus on their positive qual
ities and make an effort to
develop them are attractive.
If you stop dwelling on
your perceived flaws and
work to develop the things
you have to offer, the results
may surprise you.

DEAR ABBY: I am sur
prising my husband for his
40th birthday with a guys'
trip. All of his best friends,
except one, live out of state,
and one lives out of the
country. I am delighted that
they are willing to hy in for
his birthday. He's going to
be so excited.
My dilemma lies in what
to do about the hotel costs. I
offered to pay for a room
for them to share for the
weekend. However, one
member of the group insists
on paying for his share of
the room. The others
haven't said anything yet.
If they offer to pay for the
room, should I let them ? Or
should I insist on paying
because the trip was my
idea? I don't want anyone
to feel obligated to spend so
much money since they are
all paying their own air
fares, which they insisted
on. —SURPRISED IN
THE WEST
DEAR SURPRISED:
I'm sure your husband's
friends are pleased that you
planned the birthday
reunion. If they offer to pay
for the room they will be
sharing, you should let
them. However, if anyone
does not make the offer,
pay his portion.
