Dear Abby.....

HUSBAND REMAINS IN THE DARK ABOUT WIFE'S NIGHTTIME VISITOR

DEAR ABBY: I am 27, and my wife, "Marybeth," is 26. We recently went to my folks' house for supper. That evening a heavy snowstorm was starting and, because the trip home is 30 miles, we decided to stay overnight.
My old bedroom is upstairs, as are the rooms of my brothers, ages 25, 24 and 22. The guest room is downstairs. Because the room is quite small, and Marybeth said she felt a cold coming on, we decided I'd sleep in my old room.

The next day, while we were driving home, Marybeth told me she was glad I had come to her room after all and made love to her.

Abby, it wasn't me! She had mistaken one of my brothers for me in the darkness. We are all about the same size and build.

I have talked to each of my brothers (they all know about this), but they won't say who it was for fear of causing a rift between the guilty party and me. I told them that unless I find out who it was, there will be a permanent rift between all of us. (Marybeth still doesn't know it wasn't me.)

How do I handle this? -- ENRAGED IN ROCHESTER, N.Y.

DEAR ENRAGED: While you and your brothers may have a strong family resemblance, I find it hard to believe that you all smell, taste and make love like clones. So please do not accept as gospel that your wife didn't have an inkling that it wasn't you. As to who actually crept into her bed in your absence, if your brothers won't reveal who the guilty party is, then they're all equally guilty, and I wouldn't blame you for severing ties with them.

It's time to have a serious chat with your wife and get chapter and verse on what happened that night. Then she should be tested for STDs and treated if necessary.
It is possible for a couple to get past something like this, if you're both willing to work at it. The shortest route would be with the help of a licensed family therapist.

------------------------------------------------

You can't make this stuff up! Opinions....

I just can't believe that the other brothers would refuse to turn over the guilty one. They are afraid of causing a rift? Wouldn't most families feel such horror at the guilty brother he would be ostracized immediately? Nah, I don't buy this whole story. I have always been a little suspicious of those letters to Dear Abby and her cohorts!

Call me cynical, but I was thinking the same thing. It's probably penned by some 19 yr old college student after a couple of beers!

Great Roald Dahl book, 'Swith Bitch', has a short story in it called 'The Visitor', which broaches this subject.

Highly recommended, shame he didn't write more adult fiction: http://www.amazon.com/Switch-Bitch-R.../dp/0140041796

His books for young ones are a hit at our house. He spins a great tale.

That he did. Tim Burton did a movie later. Oh, I think he also wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
