I did that to a nice girl from my high school class. We went to CMU. I just stop calling because I was going to get drafted. There was nice way to do it. She would probably waited. Nobdy should ask somebody to stop living when you don’t know if you come back.

Until my wife, Lisa was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. Lisa was the Woman of men’s wildest sexual dreams. Her face was Asian Beauty. For a man, he would want to wake up next to her sleek, slender body after a night of endless pleasure. As she walked with those perfect legs, men’s hearts would quicken at the Officer’s Club in PI.But I never slept with her. I was just her friend. She would tell about how she went to LA with her aviator fiancée. But his mother said, “You are not marrying this native girl.” After that, she always wanted to live in America. She would tell of her fears about the drunks after closing. Her friends and she would lock themselves in the liquid room.I defended her when my friend, Mike, went crazy. The war was over, but we had to be on station until the Peace Accord was signed. Mike was handsome guy from Georgia. You would image that he was one of the young gentlemen, sitting with Miss Charlotte, in Gone with the Wind. He missed the white southern belles. “You monkey, you monkey,” at Lisa. The only women around were dark.I yelled, “What the hell is matter, Mike,” as if I was talking to a seaman. He realized he was making himself a fool in the club and quieted down.Lisa found a young Marine officer to marry her. But she didn’t tell me. I finally confronted and said I was happy for her.. She looked up with sad eyes, “I was waiting for you to ask.”Then, she smiled and said, “You come see me at Camp Pendleton.”No, I would not get kill by a Marine for any woman, not even Lisa.Last Carrier on Yankee Station, Gulf of Tonkin

Here’s a novel idea, Cathy: why don’t you answer it and find out what he wants? No matter how many decades you and your clueless girlfriends spend “analyzing” things, it’s not rocket science . . . it never was and it never will be!!!!! [eye roll]

He is 39 and his mother thinks a woman can him make grow up. He is dating a woman with a 12 year old. Instant family. My wife might get to be a grandmother. All I care is somebody else runs his planned art gallery. If he does, he will run it into the ground, no matter how great a talent he is. I will never tell him that. Ha, ha

You must have written the copy for your page. It has the sharpness of an experienced ad copywriter. I am still too sloppy and don’t get to the heart. My Lansing State Journal City Editor Frank Hand: Write it until it as sharp as a needle.

“Jupiter is in retrograde”?? Well, THAT was certainly random.
As for the comic as a whole, I’ll toss in a trusty [eye-roll] for good measure.
