againthe two things his doctor told him he must never do His liver is shot from booze travelled every day for five weeks back and forth to the hospital crying and praying that God would let my husband live When he came home waited on him hand and foot wore myself to razzie sleeping with one eye open in case he needed me was exhaustedbut didnt mind because all wanted was for him to get well Now he is back at work smoking like chimney and drinking like fish What can do to save himBC In Brooklyn Dear BC Nothing There is no way you can save someone who refuses to save himself Your husband doesnt care if he lives or dies and his behavior proves it People who have so little regard for themselves need coun selling but they rarely seek it My advice is for you Quit eating yourself up and prepare for life without him Dear Ann am young man 22 going to the university and living with my girlfriend who is 20 Sally is married and awaiting legal sé ration She also has twoyearold daughter who lives With us Sain and knew each other for 10 months before we went on three week holiday and decided to live together Weve got along great for the last four months am deeply in love with her and adore the little girl Sally says she is in love with me but insists on her right as liberated woman to sleep with other men when she feels like it Nothing personal she says Just an expression of in dependence When she does this it bothers me terribly have told her so and she says Thats too bad Accept it or else What should doUpset In Canada Dear Upset its up to you to decide what kind of marriage you want Sally has told you she is going to sleep around and you can like it or lump it My guess is that after several months of lumping it youll be fed up with the whole rotten scene and head for tho oor Dear
