Dear Miss White:
| am just Is, and am told am
very pretty, am only five feet tall
and weigh very little, too. Now
here's what | really want to know.
Do we all have love come to
US sometimes whom we will really
love, or must we just seek our
mates? I've had oh, so many
different fellows to choose from
and have also gone out with
many, not taking any seriously. Of
course one did not know about the
other. I've been told what they
don't know won't hurt them. But
not one in my two and a half years
of association | love but rather |
grow restless and with a 81 don't
care' complex. Just how can | get
rid of him and him. etc, is the ques-
ton. And from the beginning
even thought | loved them, then day
by day | was getting more tired of
each, because | think | havn't met
the right one
MY chum says no wonder they
leave me when | act that way. But
what is the use of wasting time if
have to be under mask of pre-
tense? So | broke a date with one
told another | did not live there any
more and gave him a wrong ad-
dress, told another | go with a
steady, etc. Yes, l admit | was
foolish but | didn't care for any,
Now I'm alone day in and day out.
Ny girl friends are engaged, and
there are some who indulge in cheap
petting with fellows and who go
to cheap theatres merely to get ac-
quainted with fellows. | am too
proud to go with them or try to
meet that kind of people. ! get
acquainted easily because | look
friendly and attract any place | go.
That is what | can't understand and
people will smile at me and some
fellow flirt, saying, Hello sweet
ness" or call me honey. Now isn't
that silly and common? ! just come
home and cry bitterly. The world
seems to make fun of me and so |
don't come out to have them look at
me.
now, here is what bothers me
most and ! almost forgot to confide
il to you. During those two years
all my neighbors thought | was very
popular and now all of a sudden
everything has stopped and no more
fellows come to my house, not ever
one to escort me out. grew bit
conspicuous and the yask my sister
