Sue Leaf Tells
Young Woman To
Take Initiative
Dear Miss Leaf:

Dear Miss Leaf:
read your column and 1 thlnk
it is very interesting and helpful.
am coming to you for help. I am
a divorcee and I am now deeply IN
love with a man that is a gentle
man in every way. He is quiet and
nice and understanding.
The first time he came to see me,
due to a little misunderstanding on
my part, he left. He called me a
little later the same day and told
me that he was through. But he has
been to see me since and told me
that he had forgiven me and to
forget the incident ever happened.
He never calls me now and al
though I call him occasionally, !
don't know how to go about getting
him to come to see me again.
Worried
The simplest way to do is to
call him OH the phone and tell
him that you would like to see
him and tell him exactly the
time and day to come to see you.
when it is convenient to him.
While he would not expect a
little school girl to call him first,
he would look for you to let
him know how you feel about
| him and he knows If you really
want to see him, you will let him
know by some method.
