You're a plugger if you go out in the middle
of winter to help someone you don't know.
Full-figured girl must choose the right clothes
DEAR ABBY: I would like to reassure
“Darlene in Dallas,” the 12-year-old
girl who is looking for ways to make
boys realize she is more than her
ample bustline. I feel her pain. I have
been full-busted most of my life,
beginning with a DD prior to high
school and continuing up from there.
As an image consultant, I advise
my clients how to dress for a particu
lar effect.
First, she should not be ashamed
of her figure. She is special and beautiful
and not just because she is well-endowed. She
doesn’t need to wear tents, but she should
choose tops that skim the body rather than
tight or low-cut garments that accentuate her
cleavage.
Interesting jewelry, hair clips or headbands
will draw the eye upward to her face and take
the emphasis away from her chest.
If she has shapely legs, she should wear
skirts and pants with funky patterns. That,
too, will draw the eye away from the bustline.
And above all, she should learn to love
herself. I wish her my best. She is not alone.
DIANE D., NORWICH, CONN.
DEAR DIANE D.: Bless you for lending
your expertise. A number of readers respond
ed to that letter with helpful suggestions.
Read on:
DEAR ABBY: Tell her to buy some “birth
control glasses.” A pair of unflattering glasses
will stop any boy dead in his tracks. My sister
got a pair of nonprescription glasses for that
very reason.
WALLY IN AUSTIN
DEAR WALLY: Really? My mother used to
say that men who don’t make passes at girls
who wear glasses are asses. Read on:

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(February 12). In this year of
romance, your senses are
delighted in many ways, and
you feel life has real quality.
Keep taking steady, small
steps, and a goal is obtained in
March. May brings money.
Mutual attraction turns into a
headlining love affair in July.
You better yourself physically
and intellectually in August.
Passion signs are Pisces and
Scorpio. Your lucky numbers
are: 4, 25,49, 11 and 20.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Your leadership ability is fea
tured you put together a
group of people who can do
the job. Attention to diet and
exercise keeps energy high.
Temptations are many; perse
vere to see results. Those sell
ing property are lucky.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Can you be logical about a
passionate relationship? Try!
A romantic interest may try to
lean on you financially, but
the need is probably more
than you can give without ulti
mately feeling resentful. A
long talk will fix almost any
thing.

DEAR ABBY: Please tell “Darlene in

I Jeanne Phillips
BEEN THERE, TOO
DEAR 8.T.T.: What a great suggestion. I’m
sorry I didn’t think of it.
DEAR ABBY: I must take issue with your
response to the 12-year-old girl who wants
boys to like her for who she is and not
because of her big bust. You suggested she
“impress them with attributes she wants them
to notice...”
A 12-year-old wants to attract boys, and
you want to give her a healthier way to do it.
As a psychologist who works with children
and adolescents, I have seen firsthand the
devastating consequences of sexual behavior
in those who are so young.
That girl should focus on developing inter
ests other than boys. She should explore her
talents, get involved in helping others through
volunteer work, participate in sports, spend
time with her girlfriends, talk to her brother,
father, pastor or rabbi —, anything other than
worry about better ways to attract boys.
Ph.D. IN YORBA LINDA, CALIF.
DEAR Ph.D.: I agree that ideally Darlene
should be encouraged to focus her attention
on developing her talents and personality.
However, at 12 she is receiving attention from
boys, and she needs to learn how to handle it
now.
Under the stars' gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Family members are receptive
to your suggestions but still
won’t carry out plans as you
would have done it. Everyone
has his or her own way. There
may be a miscommunication
at work to sort out.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Avoid excessive self
scrutiny. Your social nature
flourishes. Be sure to use
those contacts for profession
al gain. A loan will be
approved. Tonight, even if
your mind is made up, it
behooves you to let others
have an opinion.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Be
patient, and success will be
yours. Pertinent details have
yet to present themselves.
You’re tempted to spend too
much money for an item
hold off for a genuine bar
gain. Friends help you figure
out how to get what you want.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Far-range plans become
crystal clear. Keep your nose
to the grindstone don’t go
out to party until the work is
finished. Those looking for
work need only let others
know they are available.
Reach out.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Opportunities require you to
be in tip-top shape. Even if
you’re not sure what the
prospect will be exactly, get
ready for it. Keep an
appointment with a friend
you have not seen in a while,
and you’ll have a fabulous
time.
Dallas” to ask her mother or
another adult to take her to a lin
gerie store for a proper brassiere
fitting.
There are bras specifically
designed to minimize a woman’s
size. Good support is a necessity
for large-breasted girls and
women to prevent back, shoulder
and tissue/nerve damage. I know
this from experience.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Deals are easier to agree
upon people want the same
thing. Get it in writing.
Tonight, pleasing loved ones
is tricky business, and you’ll
realize that trying to be every
thing to everyone isn’t the
way to go.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). Consolidate finan
cial matters that need to be
simplified. Tonight, you are
charming, witty and playful.
You could easily change the
way you feel about someone
one you weren’t attracted
to before could be a love inter
est.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Physical sports and men
tal challenges are the best
places to meet up with excit
ing friends and romantic
prospects. The family gets
along best when friends are
invited to the weekend activi
ties.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). A deep sense of question
ing is at work in your psyche.
Acknowledge that nobody
knows all the answers any
more than you do. At the same
time, it’s important to show
reverence for the past accom
plishments of others.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You are tempted to spend
crazy money for emotional
reasons. Instead, sit down with
the bills or a list of dream pur
chases, and figure out how
you are going to make things
work. There is away. Loved
ones will help.
