PUZZLED GIRL.
Dear Puzzled Girl - There are
hundreds of girls in your shoes, un-
happy, puzzled, disillusioned. At the
risk of hurting your feelings and
theirs, which I wouldn't do for the
world, I am going to say that we
women are too deadly serious about
love affairs. why can't we learn a
lighter touch from the men?
I do not mean for a moment that
you have presented the young men
in question with the privilege OF
marriage when they were unwilling
to assume one of it's responsibilities
But had you been a little more I'M
derStanding you could have looked
upon their behavior with more hui
NOR and less heartbreak.
For instance, suppose you have an
attractive dog in your house. While
you are preparing dinner he formu-
lateS designs upon luscious porter
house steak and makes a grab fol-
it. You do not condemn him toe
harshly for obeying the dictates OF
his animal nature, although he is
breaking all the rules of decency BY
his conduct. You just bat him down
and see that he doesn't get what he
wants.
The analogy is imperfect, I know
for boys know better~and dogs do
not. Nevertheless, if they insist on
acting like puppy dogs, the thing is
to treat them as such. These young
men not only were following prim-
tive impulse without stopping to
reason. I should say, just bat them
down and laugh.
Don't cry. They aren't worth it.
And the next time a young man
makes love to you, expect nothing
Even after the ring is on your fin
ger and Mrs. before your name, don't
hug illusions too closely, nor lose
your understanding of the simple
animal nature of the man you mar
ried. He won't take you as serious
ly as you take him.
Dear, Jane Jordan-We are two girls.
