If you’re going to give advice, you could at least put your real name on it.
You’re such a fraud.
DEAR ABBY: Im a 41-year-old gay man.
For much of my adult life, I have attracted mostly women.
I have always tried to handle these situations with as much tact as possible.
However, some women wont be let down easily.
I have tried introducing them to straight male friends and deflecting flirtatious banter.
Am I confused, or do some women genuinely believe they can change my orientation?
I dont want to give up on female friendships.
Am I doing something wrong by being myself?
OUT & PROUD IN THE WEST
This is a tale as old as time.
It’s a classic Catch-22.
You’re not the first person to be in this situation and you won’t be the last.
But if you want my advice, I would tell you thatahole is a hole.
In the year 2024, you’re free to’t be discriminating as to where you stick your penis.
To exclude women from your sex life entirely is severely problematic.
What is a gender anyways?
I don’t even know that word.
I’ve completely eliminated it from my vocabulary.
I recommend you do the same.
DEAR ABBY: Our wonderful daughter has her doctorate.
Shes a hardworking professor, a job she loves.
Her husband, Phil, has three masters degrees and also his doctorate.
In their 20 years of marriage, he has not worked a single job.
Phil is rude, disrespectful, stunningly immature, a bully, toxic and passive-aggressive.
He drinks too much and goes to the gym three hours a day.
I worked as a psychiatric social worker.
Their 10-year-old son is a joy and a blessing to be with.
Unlike his father, he has a work ethic and is kind and grateful.
I fully understand we dont control anybody else and often cannot even influence their choices.
We have been very generous to them during their marriage.
We wish we could keep our daughter and grandson and give Phil a one-way ticket.
SEEING CLEARLY IN MAINE
“Phil” sounds like a real piece of shit.
How can you not get a writing job with THREE master’s degrees and a doctorate?
The more degrees you have the greater your income is.
They assured me of that when I was in high school.
Phil must not be trying hard enough.
Has he even considered making a Yak Jeopardy Trivia game that gets him an invite to Barstool Idol?
It sounds like he doesn’t even care.
It’s really not that hard.
Consider filming him privately without his consent.
Set up secret cameras around the house.
People will throw their money at her.
Especially if you provide them with 30-60 seconds of entertainment via TikTok.
Obviously she needs to ditch this Phil guy.
That’s how you win.
DEAR ABBY: My husband looks at pornography.
I find it disgusting and it turns me off.
I dont believe his excuse of It has nothing to do with you.
I dont know anyone else with this kind of issue.
I havent been able to have sex with him lately knowing this is going on.
I dont have plans to leave him over this, but what can I do?
It’s a wife’s responsibility to keep her husband sexually satisfied at all times.
Your husband doesn’twantto get off on xnxx “big beautiful step-mom seduces step-son” videos 3 times a day.
But you’ve left him no choice.
Have you even tried eating his ass?
Until you’ve done all of that, I don’t want to hear your porn complaints.
Everybody wants to have a good sex life but nobody wants to put the work in.
If you truly must break up with him, then by all means do it.
Just know that your failed relationship is on you.
NOTE: It’s come to my attention that Dave has already done this.
So I should at least acknowledge that.
But I still feel like I can do this once a week and it’s not that egregious.
And to be fair, Dave didn’t invent advice.
Advice was invented by Abby.
