DEAR ABBY: Regarding “Silver Girl in Latest York” (Jan. 5), whose husband is making her feel less loved because she decided to not color her hair anymore, that is her decision to make, not his. He must grow up.
You advised her to wear a red wig when he’s feeling amorous. What were you pondering? So, she is presupposed to be uncomfortable in her own residence simply to make her manchild husband feel higher about himself? It’s her hair; she will be able to do what she wants with it. I’m wondering if her husband is a few form of Adonis after 20 years of marriage. I bet not, but she isn’t asking him to vary things about himself. Women, know your value! — TERRI IN IOWA
DEAR TERRI: Interestingly, the “colourful” responses I received about that letter were evenly divided. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: Why is “Silver Girl” so against coloring her hair for her husband? He obviously loves her and loves the red hair. When did women get so touchy? We do things for our spouses to point out our love. If he were my husband, I’d dye my hair green if he asked. I’d love the proven fact that he loved my hair. “Silver” should do not forget that there are lots of ladies on the market who would dye-banish the grey for man. — NATURAL REDHEAD IN CALIFORNIA
DEAR ABBY: “Silver Girl” recognizes that gray hair ages her appearance. She coloured it to look younger and more competitive in her workplace before she retired. Did she care more about her colleagues’ opinions than that of her own husband? Does the proven fact that it makes him feel older not matter to her? — “GOLDIE” IN NEVADA
DEAR ABBY: In fact all of us have the proper to be who and the way we would like to be, but lots of us, crazy in love with our husbands, go the additional mile to maintain their engines running. Knowing they love us AND desire us as much as we do them is a turn-on. “Silver” is lucky her husband expresses himself, although he could use some lessons on finesse. — ECSTATIC WIFE IN MICHIGAN
DEAR ABBY: “Silver” was gray-haired when she met her husband. On the subject of body autonomy, we want to please ourselves. If he’s having issues with getting older, possibly he should discuss with someone about what’s causing him to feel that way. Aging gracefully must be the norm, not the exception. — CAROLE IN WASHINGTON
DEAR ABBY: In my family, we seek advice from gray hair as “wisdom highlights.” — SMILING IN MAINE
