DEAR JANE JORDAN-—About seven years ago I was working in a factory and met a fellow there. We became quite attached to each other and the romance went on for about six months. Then one vening he didn’t show up and the next day at work I learned he had quit. A few days later I received a letter from a town in Ohio telling me he was married. He had been called home because he had just become a father. This was a blow which was hard to take but I settled down, went to night school and took up a profession. Two years later I was sent to hospital in a northern state and who was I to meet there but he! He had left his home and applied for a divorce. He promised me the sun. and before I left made me promise to write, which I did. About a year later he stopped writing. I forgot him completely, I thought. : Two years ago I drove to New York with some friends and we stopped in Ohio overnight. In a night club there, up he popped again. Was this my fate? He told me he had his divorce and started his sweet talk again, which I let go in one ear and out the other. When I got home I had four letters from him waiting for me. For the last two years I have received very lovely gifts and longdistance calls, and he has visited here on the average of every three months. He has not proposed to me and I feel that I am getting nowhere fast. I believe he is taking things for granted but I want some action. Should I sit around and wait, give him up entirely and look for someone else, or tell him I want action? I am 28 years old and not getting any younger.—ANXIOUS. ” » » Answer—Look back over the man’s record for the past seven years. The first six months of your romance he was married to another girl and deceived you both. The second time you crossed his path he wrote for a year and quit. The third time he had quit his marriage, and although he has been more consistent in his attentions to you he gives no indication of wanting to marry. Is this the record of an emotionally stable man whom you can trust for life? The facts are enough to give any sincere girl pause. g I think you are getting panicky because you're still unmarried at 28. You think he is your only chance and you'd better take him regardless of the risks. This is a poor reason for pushing marriage under any circumstances. He hasn't tied you down in any way and you're perfectly free to see other men. I imagine that he has seen plenty of other women. I doubt if it would bring him to the point if you told him you wanted action. If he wanted to marry you he would have said so long ago. He has faced the possibility of losing you for seven years without worry, Why should you think he would worry now? In my opinion you would do well not to take his love-making too

{| seriously and make as many other i| contacts as you can. Better wait

a few more years, if you must, then marry such an uncertain proposition

| just because there is no one else in

sight at present. JANE JORDAN.
