She's everything I ever wanted in a mate. We have a similar sense of humor, and our goals and ambitions are almost identical. Our values match, too -- except for one: My sense of propriety seems to be a stumbling block. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/dearabby/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucda/20090702/lf_ucda/courteouscustomerskeepexpresslanesuptospeed ucda/20090702/courteouscustomerskeepexpresslanesuptospeed Dear Abby entertainment Thu, 02 Jul 2009 06:16:28 GMT Dear Abby - DEAR ABBY: Your response to "Frustrated Shopper in Idaho" (April 5) made me very upset. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/dearabby/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucda/20090701/lf_ucda/girlfriendcantgetclearancetoseemanstopsecretlist ucda/20090701/girlfriendcantgetclearancetoseemanstopsecretlist Dear Abby entertainment Wed, 01 Jul 2009 06:16:33 GMT Dear Abby - DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend, "Beau," and I moved in together and already we have trust issues.

When I arrived just a few minutes past the time I was told the meal would be served, I found that everyone had finished eating. I was asked if I'd like something to eat and offered a plate, but refused because I would have felt uncomfortable eating alone while everyone else stood around visiting. I stayed about an hour and left. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/dearabby/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucda/20090628/lf_ucda/teenagemotherwantsmoreinvolvementfrombabysdad ucda/20090628/teenagemotherwantsmoreinvolvementfrombabysdad Dear Abby entertainment Sun, 28 Jun 2009 06:16:20 GMT Dear Abby - DEAR ABBY: I'm 15 and have a 6-month-old daughter who is my everything.
