I must admit that I love reading advice columns. There is this problem that I read about a girl and a divorced guy. The girl is going steady with the divorced guy for more than two years now. She is hoping that they will get married soon. But the guy, coming from an unpleasant marriage is not that excited to jump into another one again. The problem is, the girl is ready to commit and start a family but afraid to voice out her stand to the guy. She understands where he’s coming from but then she’s harboring this fear that he might not marry her at all.

Is he just undecided or averse to the idea of marriage altogether?

I like the advice of the columnist. Better talk it out with the guy right away. Do not wait for another year and then the girl will just find out that her fears came true. If the guy has plans, lay it out now. No more hedging on his part. It’s just fair, right?

Do you know that Dear Abby column in the past? I read that regularly! I guess being the eldest, not just in our family but also among my numerous cousins, has this effect. You always have a ready suggestion to make, an advice to dish out.

Got any problems I can help you with? Hehe
