CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Dig deep, ask questions and
will be difficult for your com-
petition to deal with. Stay on
top of your game and play to
win.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -
Emotional matters will leave
you confused. Ask questions
and look for the source of the
problem. Knowing what you
are up against can help you
avoid being manipulated or
blamed for something you
didn’t do.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -
Stay on top of matters. Don’t
let anyone intervene in your
affairs. An emotional encoun-
ter with a co-worker should
be dealt with openly and hon-
estly to avoid rumors. Learn
from experience.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

Dear Annie: I recently
reconnected with an old girl-
friend. We had not spoken,
texted or seen each other in
almost five years. She broke
my heart about five years ago,
and my mother was killed
shortly after that. I’ve not
dated or wanted to have a
serious relationship since.
About three months ago, I
told my daughter that I was
ready to meet someone. So
she brought up Match.com
and signed me up, just so I
could browse. The very first
profile I saw was my ex-girl-
friend’s! My daughter said,
“Text her, Dad. It’s a sign.”
After debating it, I did. And I
came to find out that she real-
ly had not dated anyone in
five years, either, and that she
had stopped browsing Match,
com more than a year and a
half ago.
Well, we started texting
and then meeting for lunch
and then dinner, and next
thing I know, we are spending
almost all our time together. I
was not the best boyfriend
years ago, but I changed so
much after my mother’s
death. And this woman really
noticed a huge change in me.
She even got emotional about
how well I treat her and how
much I spoil her and how
amazingly sweet I am now.
She said, “No one has ever
treated me as well as you do
now!” That’s exactly how I
promised myself I would try
to behave.
I’ve fallen in love with her.
I’m so scared to tell her, and
I’m so scared to lose her. But I
want her to know I’ve fallen
for her now much differently
than I did in the past. I always
ask her now, “Were you like
this before - funny, smart,
witty?” She says, “Yes, but
you were blind to it before!”

And I was. I was going
through a very bad divorce
and losing a business, just to
name a couple of things.
How do I convince her of
this? I always tell her I’m
insanely crazy about her. She
tells me she feels the same.
We are almost 50, and I’m not
sure I can go through another
heartbreak. - Lost Love
Dear Lost: Anything worth-
while comes with some risk.
To win big, you have to bet
big, and from the sound of
this love affair so far, I’m bet-
ting on you. Just tell her you Don’t
love her. Even if she doesn’t
say it back, telling people you to gather all the facts before

your take on this? - W.C. in
Waycross, Ga.
Dear W.C.: My take is that
you’re very considerate, gen-
erous people. Based on that
fact, I’m sure that however
you’re handling the situation
now is the correct way to do
so. Insisting that your guests
order first is a good tactic to
ensure that they don’t down-
grade their order after seeing
that you two are splitting one
entree. But don’t feel bashful
about politely explaining,
“We simply don’t have the
appetites we used to, and we
enjoy sharing a plate. But
please, order whatever you’d
like. Our treat.” Such a warm
statement, said with a smile,
will surely melt away any from an “unusual source,

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
23-Dec. 21) - You can bring
about positive personal
change if you put a little mus-
cle behind your plans. Use
facts and experience to
explain your actions if some-
one overreacts.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) - Avoid making snap deci-
sions or taking on responsi-
bilities that don’t belong to
you. You can stabilize a situa-
tion by offering suggestions,
but don’t take on a burden
that will stifle your goals.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) - Be careful not to take on
more than you can handle.
Sticking to basics and ironing
out any trouble spots before
it’s too late will help you
reach your goal.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
- You’ll face opposition if you
are too open about your feel-
ings. Don’t get into an argu-
ment over something that is
based on an assumption.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
- Sign up for something that
connects you to your past.
Attending a reunion or gath-
ering of old friends will
encourage you to do things
you used to enjoy.
