We’re now in our 50s. We were insepara ble best friends all those years. When we were about 30,1 started noticing our friendship seemed to be a one-way street because he made no effort to initiate contact. Gene was gracious and inviting if I called him, but he never called me. Instead, he focused on friends he could benefit from profes sionally and withdrew from old friends like me. About 20 years ago, I stopped call ing him and decided to move on with other friends who were more congenial and courteous. You could count on one hand how many times I’ve seen or spoken to Gene in the past 10 years, but today I received a graduation invi tation from his son who wants a cash gift for his high school graduation. Abby, his son wouldn’t know me if I tapped him on the shoulder. To say I was appalled is an understate ment. I feel no obligation to send money to someone I don’t know, and even less than that given the way Gene abandoned our decades-long friendship years ago. How can I han dle this tactfully without coming across as rude or bitter? — SHOCKED IN THE BLUEGRASS STATE DEAR SHOCKED: The polite way to handle it would be to send the young man a congratulatory card, wishing him well. DEAR ABBY: I just said goodbye to my third beloved pet. Even though it has gotten easier over time, each passing has been dev astating, and I have grieved deeply over their loss. When my mom passed a few years back, I was with DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips her during that peaceful moment. I felt sadness, but nothing approaching the level as it has been with my pets. My father’s time is grow ing near, yet I don’t feel sadness. I have had loving relationships with my par ents, but not like some of my friends who described their parents as their rock or their best friend. Em worried that I lack something in my heart, and I should be feeling a greater loss for humans than for pets. Please help me make sense of this. I don’t feel OK. — GRIEVING DIFFERENTLY IN FLORIDA DEAR GRIEVING: Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your pet, and please stop flogging your self for your feelings (or lack thereof). Everyone grieves differendy. It is pos sible that you were able to accept the death of your mother because you were no longer interacting with her on the emotional level your friends did with their parents. The same may be true for your father. Your pets, on the other hand, were a source of emotional support on a daily basis. Sometimes pets become the equivalents of children, and the loss of that “child” can be more painful than losing one’s parents.
