For most of my childhood, he was my best friend. When we were 14, I got scared we might fight, break up and never forgive each other, so I told him I want ed to go back to being just friends without explaining why. In retrospect, I know how stupid it was, but when I was 14 it made per fect sense. When I said it, he got angry, but more than angry he was very hurt. I never saw him again. My problem is, I haven’t been able to put myself in a relationship since. Sometimes he resurfaces in my dreams. When it hap pens I always feel happy “seeing" him again. I don’t know what to do about this nagging feeling and how I put off a love life because of it. It’s more than a decade later. He has probably changed so much and would want nothing to do with me, so I think it’s bet ter to leave him be. But I’d like to talk to the person he is now, whoever that is. Is there a way I can solve this? NERVOUS ROMANTIC DEAR NERVOUS ROMANTIC: Yes. If you know where he is, contact him and tell him you would like to talk privately with him. Explain what hap pened so many years ago and see if he is willing to hear you out. And please stop beating yourself up over what happened, because it was normal teen age behavior. • • • DEAR ABBY: I’m 50. All my life I have known I didn’t want kids, and I have had to deal with people who can’t understand it. I have reached the point where I can hardly wait until I’m 55 so I can live in a child-free senior living development. The problem is, my part ner is 10 years younger than DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips I am. He won’t be able to move there when/if I do, so I’ll have to wait another 10 years to live in peace. I don’t want to break up with him, but I may have to. What is your take on the sit uation? — OVER-55 ONLY DEAR OVER-55: My “take” is that not all couples are exactly the same age, and if one partner qualifies to live in senior housing, his or her partner will not be excluded. My advice is to start researching retirement communities so you fully understand what the requirements and restric tions are before deciding to move there, with or without your partner. • • • DEAR ABBY: I know that you are all about good manners, but I think one current practice has gone way too far. When I sneeze, I get loud “bless you’s” from co-workers in the next room. I am not religious, and I find it offensive. These “blessers" have been indoc trinated in a 600-year-old religious practice designed to prevent the plague from jumping into the sneezer’s body. When someone pass es gas or burps, the “excuse me’s” are often more offen sive than the act — no lon ger the demure “pardon me” of the past. Sneezes, gas and burps are all natural parts of life. Can’t we just let them be, without making them spe cial? — OFFENDED OUT WEST DEAR OFFENDED: You can. All you have to do is tell your co-workers your attitude about their thought fulness, and I am sure they will refrain. In droves.
