Miss Lonelyhearts
Maybe wife was waiting for just the right time to get even
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I just spent the better part of the morning reading my wife's journal and I'm in complete shock. We had a fight last night where she said she had "other people in love with her" and she had "alternatives to our sham of a marriage." It's been anything but a sham for me. She has been my only love for 11 years, although I admit I had a few little slips at the beginning of our marriage when I was young (early 20s) and feeling trapped, But, we worked that out, and I thought we'd had clear sailing the last eight or so years. Who knew? It didn't take much to break the lock on her journal and find out she's been getting even with me for my old flings the last few years. Aside from the fact she cheated, which bothers me enough (but I have no leg to stand on there) she's done things with another guy she would never do with me. I won't go into detail. I just feel like packing! We have no kids, just each other. I guess she took her time and got even. What should I do? -- Broken Heart, East Kildonan

Nothing good can come from crush on teacher
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I'm in high school and I can't concentrate on what the teacher is saying because I'm so in love with him. But something bad has happened this week! There's this other girl in one of my classes who's making obvious plays for him. That really upsets me. How do I let her know how much I care for him, and get her to back off? I know what you're thinking, but he's not that much older (my parents are further apart) and I think he's the greatest man I've ever met. I don't like high school boys, never have. I'm 17, almost 18, and mature for my age. I think he likes me too, but I don't know if he likes me in the same way. Everybody loves him, but not the way I do. I can't wait for school to end so something will be possible with him. -- So In Love With Him, Winnipeg

You're not death proof
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I met a 22-year-old woman I love and she's the worst driver in the world. She's almost killed us three times in the last month. I'm afraid for my life! She texts and answers her cell phone and she's a terrible judge of distance and space. Yesterday we were driving with the window down for a bit and she was yakking on the cell, and ended up riding the white line. She had to swerve to miss someone. The driver rolled down the window and screamed at her, "Get off your $@#& cell phone, you idiot!" but she didn't take it seriously. She said he had road rage problems and should be reported. I said, "Pull over." I took hold of her cell, and threw it in the backseat. Then we had a terrible fight and I got out and took the bus home. I love her, and want her back. I don't have my own car and she takes me to school. What do you suggest? -- At the Crossroads, River Heights

Confess kiss to wife, take power away from sister-in-law
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: My wife and I just came back from a trip overseas to see our relatives. While we were there, I secretly looked up an old girlfriend, just to have a beer and reminisce. Well, one thing led to another and we ended up kissing, nothing more, as we said goodbye. It wasn't a peck; it was a full-blown embrace in a car. Unfortunately, we were seen by my nosy sister-in-law. She is now blackmailing me, but not for money. She says she will tell my wife (her sister) when she comes at Christmas if I don't confess to my wife myself before that time. What should I do? -- Rock and a Hard Place, Winnipeg

Roses are red, you're feeling blue; hot politician will be afraid of you
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I've been in love with a certain handsome local politician for many years now and I finally got my chance to let him know at a party. He responded politely and told me he was married. I smiled and said, "I don't care," and he said that he did care about hurting his wife. That made me love him all the more! I was thinking of sending him some dark red roses as a kind of a good-bye gesture to my five-year crush on him. Should I sign my name or not? -- Hopelessly In Love, Same Building Downtown
