Good-time girl leaves fiancee standing outside club
DEAR ABBY: My fiancee, "Rhonda,” and I
went to a nightclub. The bouncer
said she could go in, but I could not.
I wasn’t surprised because the doors
are always open to gorgeous women.
What did surprise me was that
Rhonda went in and left me standing
there.
The next day 1 asked her if we
could go places where we could both
have a good time. She said: "Look. I
wanted to go in, OK? My friends
were there, and 1 wanted to have a good
time.”
Well, so did 1, Abby! She could have gone
to the club another time with her girlfriends.
We were supposed to be together that night. I
think it was insulting and callous for her to
treat me like that. I’m so hurt I’m ready to
break the engagement.
Do you think I am being overly sensitive?
Rhonda does.
HURT AND ASHAMED IN N.Y.C.
DEAR HURT AND ASHAMED: Not only
was it insulting and callous of Rhonda to
leave you at the door, it was also selfish,
immature and completely without regard for
your feelings. You were remarkably tolerant
not to have broken the engagement the next
morning. However, please consider it.
Rhonda has a lot of growing up to do before
she should marry anyone.
DEAR ABBY’: My friends “Mike” and
"Mary" were happily married for 20 years.
They led a healthy, active life and were an
inspiration to many people, including me.
Unfortunately, Mary lost her battle with
cancer three months ago. Mike was her devot
ed caregiver, but now he says he is ready to
live again.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(April 21). You're alive with
passion and ambition! Be sure
you apply your energy to
what's important to you and
not to what you believe is
acceptable to others. Social
situations thrive with your
involvement all spring, and
singles have an opportunity
for true love in May. For a
raise, promotion or new job,
apply in June. A Scorpio or
Libra reciprocates your love.
Your lucky numbers are: 4.
22, 1. 14 and 30.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) Political and social hap
penings encourage more
neighborly communication. A
loved one is giving all he or
she can, believe it or not. If
you want more from this per
son, you’ll have to re-frame
your needs.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) Plans you made long ago
may now seem frivolous. It’s
OK to cancel. Your time is
your own. Don’t fed pres
sured to just give it away.
Return all phone calls this
evening. Warm feelings
toward an associate tum pas-

we can “go public”?
READY TO LIVE AGAIN
DEAR READY: There is no one-size-fits-all
answer to that question. Did Mike and Mary
have children? How will a quick attachment
look to them? How long was Mary’s battle
with cancer? If it was a long fight, then peo
ple in your community will recognize that
Mike had time to mourn his loss before her
actual death.
In a nutshell, there is no exact timetable
for grief. But in my opinion, six months to a
year is a reasonable time, out of respect for a
loved one’s memory, before “going public”
unless the two of you are in your 80s. (In
which case, time may be of the essence.)
DEAR ABBY: Please advise this never-mar
ried 41-year-old woman how to answer the
dreaded, “So why aren’t you married yet?”
question.
During the early getting-to-know-you
stage of dating, this question invariably
comes up, and I always feel like I’m taking a
pop quiz and failing. Please advise.
ON THE SPOT IN TUCSON
DEAR ON THE SPOT: Stop feeling defen
sive about it, and just tell the truth. "The right
person hasn’t asked me.”
Under the stars’gaze
sionate.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Use your strong imagination
to adapt your style to suit any
occasion you find yourself
invited to all of them.
Fulfilling community obliga
tions will bring a sense of
well-being. Prosperous friends
share good fortune; accept
graciously.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Life acts like a pop quiz. Until
you take a test, you don't real
ly know what you know. Libra
draws out your intelligence.
This evening, stifled emotions
will start flowing again as life
works to open up your chan
nels of feeling.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As
far as you’re concerned,
instant gratification is the only
kind. A business that caters to
your “have it now" mentality
gets your business big time.
Be careful not to pay too
much more for something just
because you don't want to
wait.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept 22).
Politics are complex in the
workplace. You could navigate
it on your own, but why
should you? Form a strong
alliance. Capricorn and Leo
are supportive and fill in the
blank areas where you’re less
confident.
LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 23). If
someone continues to accuse
you. it’s because he or she is
guilty You’ll make an impor
tant decision. If you have to
part ways, it’s only temporary.
been spending time together, but
we’re unsure about what the prop
er waiting period should be to
begin dating publicly. The time is
right as far as we’re concerned,
but we are worried about the feel
ings and attitudes of others
even though we’ve been friends
for 20 years.
What do you think is the
appropriate length of time before
Love that was bitter will even
tually become sweet with your
new approach.
SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov.
21). Your reputation gets you
in the door; being backed by
powerful people will put you
on a fast track. You are learn
ing to be more gracious, a trait
that will also help you in per
sonal and business matters.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). There’s an agenda
and a ticking clock that cannot
be ignored. You believe you
can do it all, and you have a
good shot at proving it. Put
away those credit cards
tonight.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). It’s not so wrong to want
to be publicly adored.
Elaborate plans and generous
notions are featured be
sure you are just as generous
with yourself as you are with
others, or even the best plans
will fall flat.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You yearn to express cre
ative notions, and you’re not
the only one. Write love let
ters, make up poems, and sing
your heart out; yes, it’s a little
much, but when everyone is
acting this silly, who cares?
PISCES (Feb. 19-Mareh 20).
Authority and respect
you've got them both but may
be afraid to use what you have
because asserting yourself
feels uncomfortable. Step up
anyhow. You'll get used to the
sensation, and people will still
like you.
