DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been together six years. We are both divorced. We plan on being married in six months.
I live in a small town with a population of about 10,000. There is almost nothing to do here. There is a skating rink, a movie theatre and a bowling alley. Since bowling in a league is a weekly thing, I joined one.
Our bowling centre has been bought by a former professional bowler. She has formed a team consisting of herself, her fiance, her son and a friend who are all top-notch bowlers. Her son scores in the high 200s every game he bowls. Since they own the place, they get unlimited practice. The lady pro has taught them everything she knows. The rest of us don’t stand a chance of winning a game against them.
It’s true that it’s not about winning; it’s about having fun. But it’s disheartening that we already know the outcome before the night begins. There are other leagues to bowl in. Maybe I should join one of those? If we all drop out one by one, I’m sure they will figure out what’s going on. Any advice? — AVERAGE BOWLER IN TENNESSEETalk to the new owner of the bowling alley and tell her how you and the other players feel.
