DEAR ABBY: I have been married for 31 years to a good man. His problem is hygiene. He works hard every day and does not shower before he comes to bed. I shower every night. His sexual partner is clean; mine is dirty.
He showers in the morning, and the rest of the world sees a clean, fragrant man -- but I don't.
Am I being unreasonable to ask my husband to shower in the evening? I guess most people shower in the morning. Please advise me. -- CLOTHESPIN CONNIE ON LONG ISLAND
DEAR CONNIE: With pleasure. Ask your husband to shower with you in the evenings. It might be all the encouragement he needs to clean up his act, not to mention adult fun for both of you.
