Dear Adrienne:
w atching and feeling that I’m
losing my husband. He claim s
that he still loves me but his
actions are extrem ely different
from the words he says. W hat
can I do to recapture the fire and
energy in my m arriage? -O v e r-

with good self-esteem. Once you
get back into your zone, measure
your husband’s activity and be­
havior towards you. If things
don’t change, you have a prob­
lem that goes beyond weight. Be
prepared for a discussion and
seek honest answers regarding
your relationship.

Dear Deanna!
My boyfriend will not tell me
that he loves me. I have been
with him for three years and he
alw ays tells me that his pres­
ence should answ er the ques­
tion. He has verbally said he
loves me about live times. W e’ve
had our problem s with cheating
and break-ups but w e’re still
together. I w ant to head in the
direction o f com m itm ent but I
need to address his feelings first.
How do I find out his true feel­
ings for m e? —A drienne; C o­
lumbia, S.C.
The things your boyfriend isn’t

Y ou’ve allow ed this behavior in
the rela tio n sh ip an d at this
point, there’s a small chance
h e’ll change. You have rights in
this relationship and deserve to
know his feelings and inten­
tions. You need to be direct and
tell him how you feel, w hat you
w ant and your expectations on
love and m arriage. Be prepared
if you d on’t get the answ ers you
seek and you have to decide to
stay and settle for less o r move
on to better things.

and he alw ays acts as if I ’m

there’s no sense denying there’s
