attend parties weddings etc when you are in mourning 2 how long do you have lo wear black for a parent 3 is il proper lo put up a christmas tree and send cards after six months avid reader dear avid i yes within reason small din ner parties concerts the movies are diversions which can lift the pall of a deep loss and no one thinks the less of the mourner if the loss is quite recent the bereaved guest may attend a wedding ce remony but may wish to excuse herself from the reception people will un derstand 2 mourning clothes are not the must thy used to be such visible signs of grief dont help a per son to come out of his or her slump and we no lon ger think a long face con tributes to virme so you dont wear mourning any longer than you want to not at all preferably 3 yes the card should he conservative rather than gay it carries a mes sage of good will and is a reassurance to your friends dear doris my husband often used to come home light and start an argument then one night he wanted to know whom i had had a dale with over the phone two years ago he said i had been doing things with the transport driver who comes to our store twice a week i told him i never had anything to do with any other man since i was married now ht has brought all this up again and he will hardly sicak to me he just sits and stares but ht is nice to everybody else he rays we cant live together my more and i dont th i can keep on standinr anyway it it r or could there be something wrong with him cant go on dear cant since he drinks and is out a lot im thinking his own mis deeds are needling him so he tries lo pin on you the crime he himself commits it must annoy him that you are so longsuftering and steady if he could just per suade himself you were ojieating on him then hed feci justified a
