A mature male reader wrote to advice columnist Dear Abby about his struggles to find a partner who shares his dedication to exercise and fitness. Despite losing significant weight and getting in shape following health issues, he finds it difficult to connect with women who prioritize physical fitness as he does. He has tried dating sites but often feels catfished and struggles to find someone he is truly attracted to. Dear Abby advises him to continue looking online on dating sites specifically geared towards health and fitness enthusiasts.
In another letter, a senior lady who is happily married to a clergyman and works at a great job, is faced with the prospect of her husband retiring and her daughter, her partner, and three children needing to find a new place to live. Her daughter suggests selling her paid-off apartment to buy a two-family home together. The lady is hesitant as she doubts her daughter’s ability to contribute financially. Dear Abby advises her to have an open discussion with her daughter about the financial responsibilities and express her concerns without being harsh.
