MAN WITH SAILOR'S MOUTH ROCKS THE BOAT AT HOME

DEAR ABBY: I have been married for seven years to a man who
curses something awful. We have three children, and he curses
at them, too, when he's angry. I'm afraid his verbal abuse
is destroying our children's self-esteem, and I have asked
him repeatedly to stop it. I even threatened to leave if he
doesn't clean up his act.

When he swears, it sends shivers up my spine and I get angry.
We used to have heated arguments, but I have learned to
watch my mouth. I thought he would get the idea if I set an
example, but he didn't even notice.

He was in the Navy, and for a long time he blamed his cursing
on his time in the military. Well, he has been out for 12
years now and that excuse is a little tired. I have made
plans to leave him and will stick with my decision unless
he's willing to make a serious effort to control his mouth.
In the meantime, what do you suggest I do? I've tried every-
thing -- even prayer.
-- READY TO WALK IN VIRGINIA

DEAR READY TO WALK: In the "meantime," try earplugs for the
children and a swear box for your salty-mouthed spouse. (If
you don't know what a swear box is, it's a container into
which an agreed-upon amount of money is placed every time a
curse word is uttered.) Use the proceeds to tide you over
after you've left him if the swear box doesn't cure him.

DEAR ABBY: I have a delicate problem. My boss's wife wears
a very strong perfume. Every time she walks into the office,
I get a headache and feel nauseated for hours. I am allergic
to perfume, and women do not seem to understand that while
they "think" they smell good, they are really making me sick.

When the boss's wife comes in, I try to stay in my office,
but the smell is so overpowering I can't escape. How should
I handle this?
-- HOLDING MY BREATH IN TALLADEGA, ALA.

DEAR HOLDING: For the sake of your health, you must speak to
your employer and explain your sensitivity to perfumes and
the effect they have on you. You are far from alone in this
problem -- many others also have allergic reactions when ex-
posed to perfumes, after-shave or scented products of any
kind.

Ask your boss to please ask his wife to forgo the perfume
when she visits the office because it gives you a headache
and an upset stomach. How else will he -- or she -- know
there's a problem?



DEAR ABBY: I have been dating "Carolyn" for about a year. We
are both in our 50s and have talked about marriage in the
future.

Before we met, Carolyn had profiles on two dating sites --
not as a paid member, but just as someone who could look
around without being able to send or receive messages.

I have asked her to delete these profiles now that we have
reached the one-year mark. She says I shouldn't be concerned,
that she's just interested in reading about other people.
She insists she wants to be only with me and isn't looking
to go out with anyone else.

Abby, this doesn't sit well with me. What do you think?
-- EXCLUSIVELY HERS IN PENNSYLVANIA

DEAR EXCLUSIVELY HERS: I think you don't trust Carolyn.
Unless you're convinced that she's "exclusively" yours --
and you're not -- you should rethink your future with her.
If you're discussing marriage, she shouldn't be disregarding
your feelings.
