Is there any help for me? I love him.

I have tried dating others. The entire time I'm out with them, I'm miserable and thinking of Earl. CRAZY OLD LADY IN LOVE DEAR IN LOVE: Come back to reality. What you are describing not it's an exercise in masochism. Love is supposed to make you feel terrific, not jealous and miserable.

Earl has been nothing but honest with you from the beginning. Variety is his spice of life. He's not going to change. Now you must decide whether or not the pleasure is worth the pain. Who is Mrs.

Smith? DEAR ABBY: My husband, "John," was married before. His, former wife, "Jane," still wears her wedding rings. She also signs her name "Mrs." when she writes, letters to the editor of our local newspaper. Even though he has, asked her not to, she kept John's last name out of spite. This has caused a lot of problems because, we live in the same town.

Abby, can you still use "Mrs." after you are divorced? THE REAL MRS. JOHN SMITH DEAR MRS. SMITH: It all depends on how you use it. Your husband's former wife can call her-: self Mrs. Jane Smith if she wishes.

But for her to call herself Mrs. JOHN Smith is improper and misleading because it implies she's still married to her former husband. Pauline and Jeanne Phillips make up the mother-daughter team of Dear Abby. They can be reached at. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

iHiUhi ijiM FT' IUPUCOLUMBUS DEAR ABBY: I am a 61-year-old widow in love with a 64-year-old man who is twice divorced. I'll call him Earl. I have always had a crush on Earl. We grew up in the same little town, but we thought that we were cousins. We're now retired and have returned to the small town where we were born.

We went out for the first time to do some research into our roots and were thrilled to discover that we weren't related after all. Earl made it clear at the time that he wanted to date me, but didn't want to get married. He said he was seeing a woman named "Lucy" from the state he'd lived in before he retired. They had dated for 15 years and he enjoyed her visits from time to time. I was getting over a 15-year relationship and wanted some attention.

I didn't want to get married either, so I thought I could handle the arrangement. Well, Abby, four years have gone by. I love Earl very much. We spend at least five out of seven nights at his house and dine out together nearly every night. We have great fun.

We socialize as a couple and go to the market together. But when it's time for a visit from Lucy, Earl says, "I'm having company for the weekend. I'll call you when she leaves." I can't handle it anymore. I almost lose my mind. I'm lost for things to do.

Well, one weekend I lost it. I went to his house, rang the bell, and when he opened the door I walked in. Did I ever get a shock. I have met Lucy, and the woman sitting at the breakfast table wasn't Lucy. She introduced herself as Sybil.

I turned around and left in tears. As I passed Earl at the door, he asked what that was all about. I told him to go to hell. Three weeks went by. Earl never called so, of course, I called him and we got back together.

Lucy still comes to visit and so does Sybil. Earl told me he's not in love with me. He says I'm the best sex partner he has ever had.
