AUNT'S 'ORGAN RECITAL' DROWNS OUT DINNER TABLE CONVERSATION
DEAR ABBY: Last night, I attended an elegant dinner party at
the home of a friend. She served a delicious meal on a table
set with crystal, bone china, silver and a low centerpiece
of fresh flowers. Everything was perfection -- with one ex-
ception. As soon as we were seated, our hostess's elderly
Aunt "Ethel" began talking about her health, with graphic
details of every symptom, every allergy and every pain she
had ever endured.
Other guests tried changing the subject several times, but
Aunt Ethel evidently believed she was being entertaining.
Among those at the table were a lawyer, a teacher and a
friend who had recently returned from living several years
in Africa. Each had more to contribute in the way of conver-
sation. But not one got the opportunity to speak more than
a few words before Aunt Ethel was reminded of yet another
ailment she "knew" we'd find interesting.
How does one handle an awkward situation like this? In spite
of her age, the woman is essentially in good health and ours
is a small town. She'll probably be present at many more
dinners.
-- FRUSTRATED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
DEAR FRUSTRATED: (And I'm sure you were.) Your hostess lost
control of her party. A way to have handled it would have
been for her to say to Aunt Ethel, with a SMILE: "That's
very interesting, Aunt Ethel, but I invited everyone to come
here for a reason -- so each person can tell us what they've
been doing since we were last together, since I know a lot
has been going on." Then she should have started around the
table.

DEAR ABBY: When my husband, "Vic," and I met, we discussed
having children. Although he is 25 years my senior, he was
in accord with my desire to have kids. He even said we should
have them right away because he is so much older.
I have had reproductive issues in the past, so before we
married I went through several tests to verify that I could
conceive a child. Three months after the wedding, Vic told me
he had "changed his mind" and no longer wants a child. (He
has one from a previous relationship.) When I told him how
upset his decision made me, he said he would be "dying soon"
and then I'll be able to have all the children I want.
I'm not sure where things should go from here. I feel Vic
lied to me and never intended to have another child. Aside
from this issue and a few others, he's a good husband. He
would be there for me until one of us dies, but I don't know
if I can settle for that. Vic refuses counseling, and when I
told him I was going to go alone, he made me feel like it was
the dumbest idea ever. Please help.
-- LONGS FOR MOTHERHOOD IN LOUISIANA
DEAR LONGS FOR MOTHERHOOD: You are asking yourself very im-
portant questions, and talking about the decisions you are
facing with someone who is not emotionally involved isn't a
dumb idea -- it's an intelligent one. However, right now you
have another issue that needs to be addressed. When your
husband told you he would be dying soon, did you ask him
exactly what he meant by that? If he was being literal, you
may have your hands full for a while. And counseling to help
you through that would be beneficial, too.
