DEAR ABBY: In a courtship between a woman 65 and a man 67, who should offer the first kiss?
Please don't think this is a joke. It isn't. I am a widow and he is a widower, and we are getting very close to where I will need the answer to the above question.
If he should make the first move in that direction, I want to know if I should act coy, or should I respond? Or am I the one who should make the advance to let him know I am not adverse to a romantic relationship? (I am not, but I don't want to push for it.)
Women used to sit back and let the men make all the overtures, but perhaps women's lib has changed all that. Or has it? -- PROPER BUT PUZZLED
DEAR PUZZLED: If you feel like kissing him, go ahead and kiss him. He'll probably meet you halfway and beat you to the finish line.
