JANE JORDAN—

DEAR JANE JORDAN--T am 21 years old and I have been going with a girl of 19 for about a year. She never has had very many boy friends. She is, I am sure, very much in love with me, but T am not in love with her. Because of her love for me I have taken advantage of her, Do T owe it to her to marry her and try to make her happy when T know that T do not love her as much as she loves me? I have a steady job and could support her. Do you think that in later life T would learn to love her or would the chances be that I would fall in love with someone else and ruin our home?

Please help me decide what is right and what is best for both of us. Pp PERPLEXED,

Answer-—Marriage with a man who does not love her is a very sorry fate to befall a woman. The unhappiest women I know are those whose lives are consumed in unsatisfied yearnings by the side of a man who is emotionally indifferent to them. To be loved and needed by the man whom she loves establishes a woman's confidence In her personal worth, without which her life is lacking in significance to herself. You should not have led this girl to believe that you love her, but vou know this without my telling you. I simply wonder if you marry her in order to ease your own sense of guilt whether or not it will not be adding up two wrongs in the effort to make a right. I do not believe that vou could fool her for a lifetime. Sooner or later you would reveal your resentment at the price you had to pay for your own indiscretion. It seems to me that her suffering would be less if she discovered the truth now than later because less would be involved. I am not familiar with your concept of love, It may be that you expect some grand and glowing feeling which you will not find. As a rule maturity diminishes what we expect from love and brings us closer to the conviction that a good working relationship between two people is more substantial than a phosporescent romance, At 19 and 21 the romance has more value than it has in later life, and people who renounce it in favor of duty feel deprived. You ask me if you would learn to love the girl in later life. I do not know. I feel sure that under the circumstances she will never be particularly exciting to vou. Whether or not you could reconcile vourself to a more prosaic bond or not, I do not know, Many men have done so successfully, and many have rebelled. The unknown factors involved are such that no one can answer your question accu=
