Stranger s abrupt revelation about Dad rocks womans world DEAR ABBY: I had pret ty much an ideal childhood. My parents have never had issues that I ever saw. We went to church every Sunday, gathered with family often, etc. I’m now grown, and my parents are in their mid-80s. Out of the blue, I got a message on social media from a woman who says she’s my father’s daughter from when he was 17 years old, before he met my mom. She found out through DNA testing. She is very nice about whether I tell my par ents about her. Their health is beginning to deteriorate, and I don’t want to stress them more than they can handle. At the same time, I don’t know if it is right for me to withhold this information from my dad. I feel so alone in making this choice, so please give me any advice. -SECRET-HOLDER IN GEORGIA DEAR SECRET- HOLDER: Your father may be unaware that he fathered a child at 17. (Back then, an out-of-wedlock pregnancy was sometimes kept secret and the baby placed for adoption.) He should be given the information pri vately so he can decide if he would like to meet his daughter and whether, at this late date, your mother needs to know. DEAR ABBY: My fian cee and I began dating 2 1/2 years ago. We are in our late 50s. We moved in together four months ago and took out an equity loan for improve ments on the house. Until we moved in, we were planning our iuture together, traveling and having fun. Once we moved in, however, every thing changed. Two months later, she came to me saying “some thing is not right.” She says she loves me, she’s attracted to me and doesn’t want me to leave. She says I treat her like she’s never been treated before, and I’m so good to her (her words). But I feel like I have been put into the friend zone. This usually happens after a couple of DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips dates, not years. It’s tearing her up because she doesn’t want to feel this way, and it has me stumped about how to handle it. Is it cold feet? — BAD CHANGE IN NEW YORK DEAR BAD CHANGE: I don’t know, you don’t know and it is possible that SHE can’t identify what’s “wrong” either. Do not pro crastinate. Get a referral to a licensed marriage and family therapist for pre-marital counseling. If the two of you do this, whatever is bothering her will be revealed. If she refuses to go, seek counsel ing without her. (I hope there is no prepayment penalty on that loan.) DEAR ABBY: I am a friendly person who can get along with most everyone. I am petite in height — 4-foot- 8, to be exact. Recently, while my husband and I were at a social gathering, one of the male guests approached me and com mented, “Who let a child in here?” I was not only hurt, but also offended at his rude ness. My husband is much taller than I am, and he has never mistaken me for a child. I’m tired of being judged for my height. Any thoughts? — TESTY BUT A TRUE ADULT DEAR TINY: Was the guest who said it drunk? I can’t otherwise account for his egregious breach of eti quette in making a comment about the appearance of another guest at the gather ing. I hope you ignore his tasteless comment. (What a nitwit.)
