We began discussing my relocating to Arizona. I thought that was our future until earlier this week.
I have become the photographer. Too often, I feel like the paparazzi. When I expressed this, my girlfriend continued to insist everything is “fine” and we could have the same relationship with less contact. I feel like our relationship is heading for the rocks. We started dating again, even though she lives in Phoenix and I live in the Midwest. The geographical distance between us is challenging, but we made it work through phone calls and traveling to see each other at least once a month. I was shocked because we had been talking two or more times a day as well as exchanging text messages.

DEAR ABBY: I am a widow with three serious illnesses, one of which is potentially deadly. I hesitate to confide in some of my friends because the majority ...
I dealt all my life with an alcoholic father and I don't want to do it anymore. How do I begin to rebuild my life and start over? I want to leave him, but I have no money, no car and no job. I have become someone I never thought I would become -- alone with no life! DEAR ABBY: I got pregnant at 15 and had my oldest daughter at 16.
