DEAR ABBY
Just a Step From Trouble
By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

DEAR ABBY: After Is
years of marriage, my wife
hasn't made me very happy
because she gets all her ad-
vice from her friends" Her
friends are what I term THE
Messed Up Club" Three are
divorced, one is separated
and two are Good Time Girls.
I have told her that she
should choose for her friends
respectable married women,
but my plea falls on deaf
ears.
She has learned all the
tricks" of cheating and ly-
ing from her companions
and, as a result, our mar
riage is we'll on the rocks.
Can you help me?
HELPLESS
A man may choose his
wife, but he cannot choose
his wife's friends. If she
gravitates toward cOmpan-
ions who have messed up"
their own lives, she is one
step away from joining them.
She needs professional help
but, first, she must want to
help herself.
