They ridicule me because of my facelift. Do I have to hide at home?
DEAR ABBY: I treated myself to a facelift several years ago, and I’m very pleased with the results. However, I don’t like revealing this to people.
I believe it’s personal and my own business, even if it’s evident because of my age.
The problem is people who feel the need to delve into my life for whatever their reasons and, once they find out through logic, I become the topic of conversation and ridicule. I have been hurt deeply, embarrassed and made the fool several times, and I have no idea why anyone would care.
I respect and love my husband and don’t flaunt myself at men, but I have been accused of it. It’s hurtful because I am a “people person,” and I find the criticism and mockery to be cruel.
I’m at a loss about how to handle this other than to hide in my home. Please give me some advice. Thank you.
