Annie's Mailbox®, February 24
by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar
Dear Annie: I am a newlywed of three months. From the day I met my husband, he pulled out all the stops, impressing me with little surprises, candlelit lovemaking sessions and compliments galore, and kept me laughing until my ribs ached. He was exactly what I was looking for and I wouldn't settle for less.
A month after our wedding, all of that has been forgotten. He's apparently won his prize and now doesn't have to work for it. Granted, he brings me flowers once or twice a month and ...

I could have written this letter nearly forty years ago. Sex stopped completely after a year even when I tried to initiate it. I suffered put-downs and humiliation for 18 years before I plucked up the courage to get out with hardly a shred of self-esteem left. A week later, he came out of the closet and now leads a gay life well away from me. Good riddance and now I have a life back! I realise he only married me to further his career.

Dear Annie,
I have a small child who is very destructive. When we go to church, he knocks over all of the holy candles, moans loudly during the hymns, and splashes holy water on other children attending. My husband and I have tried everything to control this behavior, but nothing seems to work. We are against physical punishment, but we've tried everything else we can think of. How do you control a child like this, Annie?

Dear Annie
Want my Romeo back letter sounds like there maybe more going on than just winning his prize. She dose not say how long they dated but maybe Romeo is tired of putting all the effort toward the romance in there relationship. After awhile you get burnt out on giving and giving and need your mate to give you some romance. This helps reenergize your batteres for more ideas. She should try and bring the romance back by doing things on the spur of the moment. Meet him for lunch and have a picneck, leave little notes, call him at work and let him know what will be wating for hin at home then go through with it. I know from experance that the romance can die if only one person is providing it. I was married 23 yrs. I felt like I did all the romancing the last 5 years. THen when I got tired of puting the effort foward my wife said i was not romanic. We divorced even though I still love her to this day and always will. She remarried looking for that romance that I once gave her. And is still looking. So please Want My Romeo back you put Julet in the equation and keep that marrage strong. There are some good web sites for ideas my favrite is loveingyou.com
