Dear Bubby,
I found your website, and I was just wondering - are you a real grandmother? Anyway, if you're real, maybe you can help me.
My friends all know me as this cool girl who doesn't need a guy to get by... But secretly sometimes, I would like to have someone who puts me at the top of his world.
There are guys who like me, but I have no feelings for them. I tried going out with one of them because he's waited so long for me... But I just can't do it. And the guys I do like, they usually don't like me. Many say I'm too strong. That I intimidate guys, and guys prefer weak girls who fall into their arms. But I'm not that kind of girl. I'm the kind who does things for myself.
I've been told one day I'll find the guy who'll appreciate me for me. But when? At this point, I doubt that day will ever come.
Help.
Tiffany, age 18
Dear Tiffany,
Not only am I a grandmother but I am a great grandmother and once I too was 18. Just keep enjoying life and the right one will come along.
Mine did -- and when he saw me he said, "I'm going to marry you." I was with a crowd and we were all hysterical from laughing. Fast forward -- three years later after I graduated from college I did indeed marry him. So don't give up. Just be yourself and he will come along.
Happy time.
