Dear Bubby,
I have this boyfriend who likes to bungy jump. I get very worried about him. He won't stop, and he has had 10 broken bones and 20 sprains from bungy jumping. I try to tell him to quit but he won't listen to me, it's his dream.
I'm afraid that his next trip to go bungy jumping might be his last.
Please help!

Dear Unbungy,
It seems to me that your boyfriend is really looking for a fall, but for good. Have you told him that it takes a lot out of you emotionally to say nothing out of him physically?
Give him an ultimatum. If he doesn't stop you will break up. Let him takes his pick. Stick to your threat and see what happens. I am sure he can find another form of exercise if he cares about you.
Good luck
