Leave hiin with mommy Dear Ann Landers: I have been .dating a 35 -year-old dentist for several months. He is toward - other women ' and wanting to date them. 1 suspect it' I were seriously in love I a t-erttetive; ie s '.--...a ad.....�.WOtiteliat,�., b+e4, thirkking- along--« . these lines., Please 'tell me what to do, Ann. 1 am reluc=tant to end the relationship because Lee is a warm, wonderful person and I like her very much. At the same time I feel 1 should be honest with her and tell her what is going' on in my mind. Please understand 1 DON't want to stop seeing her altogether: I just want our relaticbuship to be less confining. - Undecided Dear 1'r Your situastion - minus the banana oil - is as follows: You're not ready to settle down., You'd like to keep Lee on the back burner 'but you don't know if she'll go Por it" - somewhat . interesting. I am 26. Neither of ,us has ever married. (He lives with his mother.) The problem is this: Last night it e asked me 'it' I ,would marry hint -and •hastene i to add, "IF 1' asked you, which 1 have not yet done." I 'Would have to think about .it.. He said, "Well, l'd.have to think about it,. too. You'll have to pass the test." I, asked, "What test?" He then ,..handed me a piece of paper, Here are some of the questions,*( There were 20!) Do you 'put your hair up at night and apply •cream to your a' face? • Do you change the bed linen less -. frequent /y than once. .a week?.. Do .you' wash. underwear and hose' at night and hang them, i' the bathroom? Are you one of those nut•' who reads and watches TV in bed orN do you go to bed , to .SLEEP'' ''" I won't bore you with the rest of the list, but y\dfl knew now • the.- tone of his questionnaire. He' said if 1 answered yes to. more than three questions I . was not "suitable marriage material." . What is your opinion of this? - Zapped Dem,•, Z.; Let hist- stay with his moth 1r. A bargain he isn't. Dear Ann Landers: Our minister's wife is a nice person but sometimes I think she gets herself confused with her husband. She likes to counsel and "help" even when people, don't ask for it, Yesterday, Mrs. Minister --dropped by and volunteered some advice. She told me to stop buying my husband's clothes for him, that I should let John select his own weati.ng apparel. She also told me to stop taking.. the car in for repairs becuase that was my husband's job and I should not rob .-him of • his masculinity.. When she left I just sat there 'dumbfounded. I didn't realize I was "smothering" John. as Mrs: Minister put it. My husband hates tp shop for clothes and seems to like everything I buy. As for the car, if I didn't take it in for servicing, it would fall apart. John doesn't have the time. Can it be that she is right and I don't want to face the truth? Please tell me. •- Rapped In Rye Dear Rained: You'll have to decide whether .or not John appreciates these things. Talk it out 'with him and make sure you're on solid ground. Then if, Mrs. Minister brings up the subject again, tell her thanks for' the help, but you're getting along fine. • "IT:alnts 'a faro ily - This ;soling lad with the delightfully infeetiou' smile is Bruce,eated 6, Ile it a hand.ome hti:%. of French and Jamaican dt•.eent H ith brow n est',, dark-eurl.% hair, and, cu lv , ,. stns , she turned an offer of because of you. , 1y advice • •stop plash g both ends against;'. his adoption home. ile' aim iii line't1 to h tlutiet in nes' sit - Ole middle, and. tell 'her. -the truth;' • " '-'tatit�,s -s ayycl is twit' -h,•. l u t i,- t. arm, y re+ -fu<► cc•i i t' ter • al'f'ec- r \ ' Men and, weather make mistakes • A t 't i nt'e rj f w r t inettaftfg ad• •s, v xa:d.....ho:ia4l3rr ,out •-- f the e north and a wrack of clouds tearing across the sky.
