Woman won’t kindle flame if she moves too fast
DEAR ABBY: When I date a man, I wine and
dine him with gifts and candlelight
dinners, but they never seem to be
appreciated. Not only that, none of
them ever do anything for me. 1 am
always being stood up, heartbroken,
used or taken advantage of.
What am I doing wrong? What do
men want or look for in a woman?
Also, should I be dating men who are
separated?
LONELY AND CONFUSED
DEAR LONELY: You’re giving too much, too
soon. Most men want a challenge and enjoy the
thrill of pursuit. If you take that away from
them, they take you for granted.
Men who are separated are still married.
Moreover, they are just coming out of a bad
experience. Unless your idea of a pleasant
evening is hand-holding and commiserating, a
good rule of thumb is to look for someone who
hasn't recently been burned.
DEAR ABBY: 1 need some love advice. I'm
scared of making a commitment to the man of
my dreams. He's my sister’s ex-husband.
I always knew I liked him, but now I know I
love him. He and my sister were married for
only a year and a half, and they have been
divorced for three years. I have three small chil
dren and am currently in the middle of a divorce
myself.
Can I break that unwritten rule about not dat
ing the exes of your sisters or girlfriends and
still feel like a good human being?
CONFUSED IN CONNECTICUT
DEAR CONFUSED: Much depends on the
degree of bitterness in the failure of your sister's
marriage. Are they emotionally as well as legal
ly divorced? Were there children involved'.’ How
mature is everyone involved? If the answers to

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(April 7). Big advances this
year expand your mind first
and your life second. This
month, be the sparkling per
sonality you've been hiding.
If others can’t handle the
competition, that’s their prob
lem. A new job comes in
May. and new love follows
soon after. Family ties grow
closer through June travel. A
real-estate purchase is a win
ner in September. Your lucky
numbers are: 40, 36, 22. 19.
28 and 5.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) No one can concentrate.
There’s so much you want to
say. but you’ll have to con
dense it into your top three
points, or you’re not properly
heard. The biggest advances
are in your career. Being per
ceptive gives you an edge.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) You’re the best judge of
character today, so don’t lis
ten to the gossips. Make your
own mind up instead. There's
a prize of sorts for being the
first to recognize potential.
This could be potential in a
person, object or situation.

family. I have called and written to them, but
have had little response.
My 90-year-old grandmother came to our
home a few weeks after Mom died and went
from room to room taking inventory of things
she wanted her “boys” to have. She then called
and gave me an additional list of “family” items
she wanted for sentimental reasons. I know
there is more to it than sentiment. My mother
had these things for 40 years, but for some rea
son, it’s not OK for me her adopted daughter
to keep them.
I realize they were only “things." but my
hurt is palpable because they represented a
family connection I thought 1 had all these
years.
I knew 1 was adopted, but it took my grand
mother to make me realize that in her eyes
adoption means “unworthy." Any advice would
be appreciated.
FEELING UNWORTHY IN TEXAS
DEAR FEELING UNWORTHY: Your
grandmother’s behavior is appalling. Has she
always been this way. or could she be suffering
from dementia? If she has all her marbles, then
please note that the items your mother brought
to your home were hers regardless of who cov
ets them and cannot be removed without
your permission.
Under the stars’ gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Dependable people some
times don’t come through for
you. and irresponsible people
sometimes do. Instead of
making predictions, just see
what life turns up. When you
apply that famous flexibility
to the situation, you’ll be
thrilled.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Do the work that requires
you to be super sharp in the
morning any later, and
everything seems so hilarious
it’s hard to take work serious
ly. There’s an intriguing mes
sage on your answering
machine.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Sad
stories are out there, circling,
gaining gravity and unavoid
able. Maybe all this drama is
designed to help you expand
your capacity to feel empathy.
Some people around you
attract trouble as a hobby.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Being more emotionally in
tune with others will actually
make you smarter! When
you're not caught up in heal
ing riffs and making sure you
haven't offended anyone,
you've got more energy to put
into thinking.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
You’re feeling playful and a
little fierce, too. You know the
way cats play with a bird or a
mouse for a while before
deciding it would make a
good snack? That’s your
approach to human relations
now uncharacteristic to be
sure.
accept that a union with this man
will cause World War 111 in your
family and be prepared to pay the
price, which will be a bitter rift.
DEAR ABBY: My mother passed
away after a long struggle with
breast cancer. She lived in our
home; we were her caregivers, and
her absence is mourned every day.
My problem is my mother’s
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). You’ve got strengths that
you’re aware of and strengths
that you're not aware of—
the same goes for your faults.
That’s why it’s good to keep a
Gemini or Aquarius around to
point out what you're not see
ing.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). The people who
care about you and love you
are eager to show you just
how much today. Let them
spoil you! Don't tum down a
gift just because it makes you
feel embarrassed. Trips to the
seaside are lucky.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) Communicating can be
tricky, and there are many
rules now. Luckily, you can
appreciate it all today. You're
like a universal remote con
trol you fit into any situa
tion and control it with some
well-timed button pushing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Controversy is featured.
How you weigh in to this con
flict depends on where you
choose to focus. Morality
might be fixed for you. but
it’s different for every person.
Try and tolerate what you
don’t entirely understand.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20) Your priorities change,
and the process can be disori
enting. Getting lost along
life’s way can be a gift, too
it leaches you to rely on your
faith. Because you hold onto
passionate beliefs, a fire
inside you creates a shining
light.
