US EditionDear Abby: Girlfriend hits the road amid man’s rough stretch
- Recently, a senior male letter-writer says heart issues cut his part-time work and income, and his long-term partner left their eight-year relationship, saying she was no longer in love.
- The letter-writer had always paid for everything and could not continue providing what his recently retired partner, who wants to travel, is used to; two years ago she accepted a ring but said she didn't want marriage or to live together.
- In her reply, Abigail Van Buren concluded that when he was paying, his partner "liked the ride," but she left once finances changed.
- At 70, the letter-writer says he still loves her, is gun-shy about dating again, and feels alone and depressed.
- The columnist suggested he seek independent women willing to share costs and reassured him that there are many potential partners available.
