Dear Amelia:

Recently he has been getting phone
calls from women who refuse 10
leave messages. The mere cores
pOndence would not be SO harmful
but lately he stays out evenings,
comes in with intOxicantS on his

able explanation for it. If this is
not the real thing" I want to get
out of it before it disturbs me more.
Should / leave him now or wait

ter?

Leaving hun without a COM
plete understanding as to why
you are leaving would be use
less, it seems to me. Why not
have a talk with him, letting
him knew exactly how you feel
and exactly what you intend
to do provided he does not show
signs of improvement. If after
that talk he continues his way
of living, then i would advise
that you separate. After all, 1t
is no pleasure to live with
