Trampoline poses risk
for sun-loving neighbor
DEAR ABBY: I have
really nice neighbors, and
we are always pleasant to
each other. We put up a
large above-ground pool in
our backyard, and they put
up a trampoline.
I would like to enjoy our
pool (how to put this deli
cately?) without tan lines. I
do not want to offend them
or expose myself to their
teenage son when he's
jumping on their trampo
line. Is there a tactful way
to ask them to move the
trampoline since there is no
other way to stay discreet
in my own backyard? - NO
TAN LINES
DEAR NO TAN LINES:
Have you not heard about
"tan through" fabrics?
They were invented years
ago to help women achieve
a "summertime glow"
without the risk of being
reported for indecent expo
sure. You can find more
information about this type
of swimwear online by
searching "no tan line
swimsuit."
One caveat: Derm
atologists recommend
avoiding the sun to prevent
skin cancers. When using
these garments, make sure
to use sunscreen under
neath the swimsuit so you
will achieve an all-over tan
instead of a nasty all-over
sunburn.

DEAR ABBY: I recently
discovered my wife was
having an "emotional
affair" with an also-married
co-worker. She swears it
wasn't physical, but their
texts contain professions of
love for each other and
claims of "I can't wait to
see you again." As I read
them, my heart was pound
ing out of my chest, and I
wasn't sure if I would sur
vive the day.
My wife blames it on my
emotional shortcomings. I
agree that we have had
issues. But I love her very
much, and I don't want to
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
see our marriage fail. No
one forced her to have an
affair. But she refuses to
accept that. How can I get
her to acknowledge that
what she did has threatened
our marriage and gutted
me? — HURTING IN
OKLAHOMA
DEAR HURTING:
Unless you and your wife
are willing to deal with the
issues that led to her having
the emotional affair, she
may continue to seek ful
fillment elsewhere. Stop
arguing and agree to go as
a couple to a licensed mar
riage and family therapist.
You both have work to do
repairing your relationship,
and doing so may take time
and mediation.

DEAR ABBY: Our boy-
and-girl twins are celebrat
ing another birthday soon.
They will be 5 and want a
joint party. They have
mutual friends, as well as
other, individual friends.
What's the best way to
word an invitation suggest
ing that the boy guests
bring only a gift for him,
and the girl guests bring
only a gift for her without
sounding tacky? We don’t
want to overburden people
who may feel obligated to
bring something for each
child. Frankly, they have
been blessed materially,
and are in need of very lit
tle. — PERPLEXED
PARTY PLANNER
DEAR PERPLEXED:
Why not send separate
invitations for each twin? It
may save their friends' par
ents some confusion. And
consider including "If you
have questions or need fur
ther information, call me"
on the invitations as well.
