Work through new mate’s hot Halloween hopes
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: Today, I acci-
dentally stumbled on a couples costume
package my crazy girlfriend bought for us
for Halloween. It comes with props. She
tells me she gets right into the Halloween
spirit and the sexiest costumes she can find.
I’ve seen some of them from earlier years in
her closet. Whoa.
After giving out candy at the door, she
says she likes to have wild sex with adult
costumes on. I’ve decided I want this with
her. I led a dull life before I met her and she
says we have to learn to take chances in life.
I agree.
It’s trying to figure out what she wants
me to say and do when in costume that
really gets me worried.
I’m not much of an actor. I’m a weightlift-
er and just look the part of a warrior or
biker, or something tough. My new
girlfriend is more of an actor and has some
scenes for us to try this Halloween.
I’ll admit I’m scared of what she might
want me to deliver. What to do?
— Non-Actor, downtown Winnipeg
Dear Non-Actor: Tell your new girl-
friend you might be OK trying to fulfil
a fantasy with her that her costume
suggests, but you’re worried because
you’re not an experienced actor. Ask
her to tell you beforehand what she
imagines you could say or do to turn
her on.
If what she imagines is OK with
you, things could go well. If it’s not
good, tell her honestly you’re just not
into that particular scene. If she’s
disappointed, then both of you need a
new kind of scene — or possibly new
partners.
Not to worry. You can take your gen-
tle nature and muscle-bound physique
elsewhere and be popular.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I’m a single guy,
late 20s, and live in an apartment where
nothing really happens at Halloween, so
I do what I call “goblin calls.” I drop by my
friends’ houses in a different goblin mask
every year with fancy boxes of chocolates
just for them. They love it. I love “giving
back” to them as well.
I picture them sitting down at the end
of the night and enjoying some chocolate
after they give everything out to the kids
who come to the door. They often ask me to
stay, but I never know what to say. What do
you suggest?
— Reverse Halloween, River Heights
Dear Reverse Halloween: Stay for
a bit. It’s a fun thing you’re doing for
friends on Halloween night. No doubt
your friends watch for you to come
now.
If they invite you in to hand out can-
dy with them, don’t refuse.
Stay for a bit and have fun, and then
move on to the next friend.
It’s a great idea and it’s nice for
adults to be appreciated for what
they’re doing for their friends.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: My wife loves
Halloween. I’m from another country and
not really into it myself, but I hold the
ladder steady for her when she’s putting up
lights around the doors and windows, and
having fun.
This year I started bringing home decora-
tions for her.
She loves them. But some of my relatives
who also live in Canada now think I’m
wrong to take part in a pagan ritual. I don’t
know what to say to them. Please help me.
— Love My Canadian Woman, North River
Heights
Dear Love My Canadian: Try a
non-confrontational response, such as,
“Oh, we love to do everything togeth-
er,” and then change the subject.
If the relatives go back to the topic,
say calmly, “My lady doesn’t under-
stand some of the ways we celebrate
certain things either, but she supports
me without question, as I support
her.” Then smile and stubbornly keep
changing the subject.
Please send your questions and comments to
lovecoach@hotmail.com or Miss Lonelyhearts c/o the
Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave., Winnipeg,
MB, R2X 3B6.

TV TALK SHOWS
MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or
important decisions. The moon is in Aquarius.
● ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Feel free to tackle the demanding details of dealing with
estates, inheritances, wills, taxes, debt and shared prop-
erty because you will have the patience and perseverance
to do this. (It won’t always be this easy.) Act now.
● TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Discussions with others will focus on serious matters.
People are not frivolous. Someone older or more
experienced might have helpful input for you. You might
also wish to join a group that is more conventional or old
fashioned.
● GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
This is a fabulous day to accomplish a lot. Not only do you
have the energy to work hard, you have the perseverance
to keep going until the job is done. You will work at a con-
trolled, regular pace, which means you can do difficult,
exacting work that requires patience and attention to
detail. Bravo.
● CANCER (June 21-July 22)
If you’re interested in sports or the arts, this is an excellent
day to practise and hone your skills because you will have
the energy to keep repeating something until you get
better and better at it. You might also see how to improve
a creative project or a social occasion.
● LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Family discussions will go well because people will be
careful about what they say and what they do. They
will respect each other’s boundaries while looking for
solutions. This is also a good day to do repairs or solidify
your home base in some way.
● VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Whatever you do, you will do very carefully. Your goals
might be modest but they will be clearly defined. The
question you will ask yourself is “How useful is this?” You
want to make your efforts count — and why not?
● LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You’re serious about financial matters as you ponder your
earnings, cash flow and possessions. You’re willing to
work hard to secure what you have. You’re also willing to
work hard to maintain and repair what you own. This is
definitely a solid, productive day.
● SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You will handle intellectual or physical work that requires
attention to detail or figures, or involves fine work,
because you will do every task carefully. You have focus,
perseverance and the ability to discern what is worth-
while and what is not.
● SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You’ll make a great headway by doing something behind
the scenes or alone because you might be less productive
working with others. You might also do something that
helps you to get to know yourself better.
● CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is a wonderful day to rally your forces. Get in contact
with friends, younger people, groups and organizations
because your co-operation with them could result in some
serious accomplishments. You’ll be proud of the results.
● AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You’ll impress bosses, parents and VIPs with your industri-
ousness and hard work. This is a good thing, because this
year, you have a chance to improve your job or get a better
one. (Obviously, it behooves you to make every great
impression you can.)
● PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Travel plans, opportunities to study and learn, as well as
a chance to explore avenues in publishing, medicine and
the law are excellent choices. Whatever you do, you will
do with energy and purpose. You won’t have to repeat
your work because you won’t overlook details.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

intellectual, independent and organized. You’re a natural

loving joyful year. Don’t hesitate to let your hair down and

relationships. Nurture the happiness and beauty you have
within.
