Mixed signals abound after
long separation
DEAR ABBY: I have
been talking to my ex
boyfriend of more than
22 years. We have a
grown son. We are now in
our 50s and talking and
texting again. I still love
him, and I want a rela
tionship with him, but
I’m not sure he wants me
back. I don’t know if he’s
interested in me or just
being friendly.
Can you help? At the
end of our last phone call
he said, “It’s been a long
time. Twenty-two years.
We are both different
people now. I don’t know
if it could be like it was
then,” and we said good
night.
Should I wait for him
to text me back? I don’t
even know if he’s dating
someone. He didn’t say.
Please help. — SECOND
CHANCE IN THE EAST
DEAR SECOND
CHANCE: Continue talk
ing to your ex and let this
scenario play out further.
Is he initiating these calls
and texts, or are you? If
it’s him, that’s a hopeful
sign. Yes, it is true you
are both different people
now — but that can be a
plus. With the passage of
time, you both may have
mellowed and matured. If
the discussions continue,
you will find out soon
enough if he’s involved
with someone or interest
ed in getting back togeth
er. And remember, if he’s
just being “friendly,” the
son you share is a good
reason for keeping that
friendship going.
DEAR ABBY: My wife
is very protective of our
dog, “Spencer.” I agree
with her that Spencer
should not receive table
food. Yesterday, my wife
put a large pile of dog
vomit on my desk. She
said it “proves” I have
been feeding Spencer.
Her accusation is not true.
I may have done some
peculiar things in my
time, but I have never put
vomit on someone’s desk.
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
How should I respond?
— FLABBERGASTED
IN IOWA
DEAR FLABBER
GASTED: There can be
various reasons for a dog
having an upset stomach
besides having consumed
table scraps. Spencer
should be checked by a
veterinarian to be sure
there isn’t something else
going on. As to your wife
putting vomit on your
desk, well, since you
asked — I wouldn’t
blame you if you made it
plain that SHE is in the
doghouse.
DEAR ABBY: When
someone gives a gift to
someone, shouldn’t it be
opened in the presence of
the giver? My 12-year-old
daughter ran cross coun
try, and after the season
ended, there was a ban
quet. At the banquet, sev
eral kids approached the
coach and gave him
cards. We gave him a gift
certificate. When my
daughter gave him the
envelope, he laid it down
with the other cards and
said, “thanks.” I think he
should have opened it and
read the contents while
my daughter was standing
there (my daughter would
have been so pleased).
What do you think? —
DEAR LISA: Once a gift
is given, it belongs to the
receiver to do with as he
or she pleases. Your
daughter’s coach was
under no obligation to
open the envelope in your
daughter’s presence. If he
recognized the envelope
contained more than good
wishes, he may have
wanted to spare the other
athletes embarrassment if
they could not afford to
be as generous as your
family.
