BOYFRIEND SKIRTS COMMITMENT BY USING DAUGHTER AS EXCUSE

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been together for a number
of years, and were close friends before dating. We have lived
together for 10 months now and pretty much act like a married
couple. I feel I am ready to become engaged.

He, on the other hand, feels we should wait until his 16-
year-old daughter, "Lacy," moves out -- either back with her
mother or on her own. He doesn't feel it's "right" for us to
marry before then.

We are both adults, and while I don't want to disregard
Lacy's feelings, I think this is something WE should decide.
We have told her many times that our relationship doesn't
mean Daddy loves her any less.

Something in me is beginning to think he's just making ex-
cuses and he won't "buy the cow" as long as he's getting the
milk for free. I feel like I am ...
--FLOATING IN LIMBO IN DELAWARE

DEAR IN LIMBO: You and your boyfriend need to have a frank
talk because it appears you thought moving in with him would
bring you a firm commitment, and he appears to be happy with
the status quo. If you haven't already done so, tell him
exactly what you have told me, because what you have written
makes perfect sense. And if he's unwilling to budge, then
it's time for you to "moo-ve" out.

DEAR ABBY: I recently attended a funeral of someone close.
It was a sad time for me, but it sparked an idea that may
bring comfort to my family and friends when it's my time to
go.

Abby, would it be out of line to make a goodbye video of my-
self? It would include fond memories that would put a smile
on someone's face and allow my family and friends to remember
me as I was alive, not as I lay in a coffin. Instead of a
plastic bookmark, I could leave a DVD of my final goodbyes.

I have a health problem and don't know how long I have, so
I'd like to know what you and your readers think about my
idea. I trust your advice, Abby, so please let me know.
-- FINAL FAREWELL, UPSTATE NEW YORK

DEAR FAREWELL: As long as your video is done tastefully, I
see no reason why you shouldn't do it. We live in an age
when video and YouTube are a part of our everyday lives.
I'm sure your memento will be treasured by the loved ones
you leave behind.


DEAR ABBY: For Valentine's Day I bought a dozen red roses
and had them delivered to my girlfriend's workplace. On
her way home that evening, she made a stop at the grocery
store and encountered a distraught young man near tears
because he couldn't afford to buy flowers for his girl-
friend. She offered him money but he refused, so she gave
him the roses I bought for her. (Abby, they had cost me more
than $82!)

The whole episode still has me upset. I know the roses were
a gift and she had every right to do with them as she wished.
But I think what she did was thoughtless and insensitive and
didn't take my feelings into consideration. She says I am
narrow-minded because I don't see it from her perspective.
What do you think?
-- GRINCHED IN IOWA

DEAR GRINCHED: I can see how, having spent as much as you
did for the roses, you could be upset. I can also see how
your kindhearted girlfriend might have had pity on the guy
and acted on impulse. While the roses were hers, she could
have accomplished the same thing by giving him one or two
of the roses to give to his girlfriend. However, if you
care about this relationship, you'll stop brooding and drop
the matter.
