I cannot say whether or not they
love you. Looks as though they
think a lot of you, though.
1 have been going with a boy for
one year, and we get along fine.
But there are two girls jealous of
me and they tell all sorts of tales
about me, and whenever he calls
when he leaves. He has asked me
to marry him, but he is jealous Of
men and does not want me to speak
to other boys. He is twenty-seven
and I am nineteen. These girls are
making life miserable for me. What
can 1 do?
There isn't much you can do about
those girls, except to treat them so
cool that they will not come to your
house. If your, young man really
cares for you, he will not believe
what the girls tell him.
I have been going with young
man in my community for two years.
as often as he did. He says it is
because he is afraid of my father,
who does not like him very much.
But he is going with another girl
more than with me. He says he
girl but at parties and such he seems
to talk to the other girl most. I am
going with another boy, just for
pastime. T think most Of the first
boy though, and he does not seem
to like the idea of my going with
this boy. Do you think he really
loves me?
am not able to judge whether
the boy loves you or not. He has a
right to go with the other girl as
long as you and he are not engaged.
How old should q girl be before
she can keep company with young
men? Should a girl of fifteen keep
steady company with a boy? And
should she receive presents from
them?
She should be eighteen or nearly
hat. No, to both questions.
Is there any harm in writing to
a man who is suing his wife for
divorce? He has asked me to an
swer a letter from him. He seems
to be a nice gentleman.
