Dear Miss Lee: am young girl and I
went with young fellow about six months;
We loved each other dearly and be asked
me- to marry him. But as I was too young,
mother disliked him and forbade me to go
with him We then met secretly. spent
the summer with a girl friend in a distant
town and We still correspOnded.
But when 1 returned. 1 found him IN love
with a married woman. He says he loves me
yet but I don't believe him as he SAYS he
cannot forget this married woman l have
begged and pleaded with him not 10 see her
again and TO try 10 forget her. but TO no
Should I keep on going with him as 1
have been doing and beg him TO promise 10
forget this woman. or what should l do!
I cannot give him up and forget him. as
love him very dearly--WORRIED-
You ask me whether you should
deceive your mother and keep on go
ing with a man who makes love to
a married woman. And naturally 1
tell you, as you must have known I
would do. that you should not.
You do not tell me how old you are,
Worried. That would have helped me
a great deal in answering your ques-
ton. But you indicate you are rather
young-young enough to forget, even
though you say now you cannot do
that
Don't you see you are wasting your
love on a man who is not worthy of
it? II he had tried to forget this other
woman. if he had stopped seeing her.
I might speak differently Of him. But
he did not do that, and so 1 know
your mother is justified in forbidding
YOU to see him.
Now don't sit at home and nope
about this man. He really is not
worth any thought. Instead, get out
with your friends. See other men:
be friends with them. Then you will
realize this man is not the kind Of
man you could love always. although
YOU might be infatuated with him.

Under the circumstances think
YOU would be justified in breaking
your engagement. 1t is true you
made a promise. but I believe you
both will be happier if the promise is
broken. You say the man does not
seem IN a hurry TO marry. Perhaps
he, too, realizes that you have grown
away from each other. but does not
