Dear David and Roz,
"My problem is that although I'm 67 I dress young and think young and have lots of energy. I wear my hair long and swingy and take ballet classes twice a week, so the men I'm attracted to and are attracted to me are usually 20 years younger than I am? My girl friend says, so what? Demi Moore did it, so did Joan Collins. But I can't do it. I think what do they want with somebody old enough to be their mother? (I have a married son that age!) So what do you think? I don’t like old fuddy duddies but I also don't like being alone as I am. I’ve been divorced many years now. How do I wrap my head around this?"

Dear Kid at Heart:
I say to go where your heart takes you, Its your life to live and if you find somebody who is on your wavelength and he's younger in actual years than you are, so what, as your girlfriend said. You sound like you've been blessed with some form of eternal youth. Make the most of it. Go Girl!!!

DAVID SAYS:
Dear Kid at Heart,
It’s all about life force, compatibility, the laws of attraction and let’s not forget about economics and the controlling factor the law of supply and demand. If you have the currency that merits stepping out and keeping up with a younger man then by all means enjoy yourself just don’t be too disappointed if your man doesn’t one day “wrap his head” around someone even younger.

Dear David and Roz,
"I like to drink a little. Well, maybe more than a little. Maybe I should say sometimes a lot. I got myself involved with a woman who also likes to drink a little, and I have to say she can sure keep up with me! That’s how we met. We both drink at the neighborhood bar and she's a good old girl - we laugh a lot and help each other home. That’s how we got started. I helped her home and I couldn't make it out of there. I keep thinking what are we doing? Are we going to turn into two old drunks together or should I try to break away from her for the good of both of us? One part of me says to move on and out, but the other says she'd be devastated and needs me."
- Just a Good Old Joe
ROZ SAYS:
Dear Joe:
Maybe you should sit down with your lady and have an old fashioned heart to heart talk, put your cards on the table. Tell her you love her (if you do and to me it sounds like you do) and that you want the best for both of you and maybe you both should kick the sauce. And if she understands what you're getting at and sees this as a way for the two of you to have a chance at a really good life - maybe just maybe the pair of you will actually be able to do it. You'll need help but it will be worth whatever it takes. How about AA? I’ve heard they do the job. Good luck!

DAVID SAYS:
Dear Joe,
It’s time to see if your relationship is more than just a safe ride home and a developing co-dependency. If it’s about companionship and romance I believe you should support each other by getting out of the bar and out into that big wonderful world that surrounds us all. Why don’t you both begin with a thorough checkup? Be truthful with your physician and with each other. If intervention is a consideration then get a couple of professional opinions to determine how innocent or harmful your activities are to each other and their thoughts on the best approach to modify your old and possibly unhealthy lifestyle habits. Next set some positive, practical goals to enhance the quality of your lives. You might soon realize that you are in love with the new persons you have become while safe and sound in each other’s arms.
