I am % years old, have black hair,
weigh 1875 pounds; am 5 feet and
inches tall. I am in love with
widower, 33 years old, and he has
two children. We have been going
together two years. He says he loves
me dearly, and says he can never be
happy without me, and his children
seem to be crazy about me. But my
parents object to my marrying him,
as he has the children. They would
rather I marry another younger man
that I have been going with FOR
some time. But 1 can't love him like
