. blame him for your unhappiness whén all the time you'd be unhappy because you married the wrong man. Oh sure, he'd be nice if you were sick or when things went wrong. He would pat your hand and stand by you—but you wouldn't be sick or troubled all the time. You can picture yourself in the wedding gowns in shop win- | dows and you envy the girls at bridal showers. Showers and weddings don’t last forever, but three meals a day go on forever.
I HATE WOMEN, but I don't want to live alone in my old age. I'm 28, tall, blond and very good looking, but I'm lonely living with my mother.and my dog. I have a friend in the same position.) He's 24, but rather chunky. He doesn’t even have a dog. Please help me. T. J. 8— You can learn something from that dog of yours. He acts friendly to people he meets and people return his friendliness. It's a miserable world because you're miserable—and you're miserable because either you don’t know what you want or you won't let yourself want anything that requires effort. Your dog likes you for your kindness and so would other people if you'd let them. :
But She Won't Give Him Up THE BOY I love tells me he has another girl and ine in a bag and doesn’t know who will come out first. . If I come out first I'm
steps out with this girl when he ‘tells me he'll be over. He just leaves nfe waiting, but tells me the next day. He brings me home from the show and then takes her riding, getting home in the morning. I've gone with other boys and refused dates with him—everything except quit him—and that I can't do and won't do. DESPERATE, City. I'd get a bag of my own with a whole flock of boys in it. 1 wouldn't know who was coming out. first.
Husband Refuses to. Talk to Her Son I'VE BEEN married two years and love my husband but he never talks to the boy I had before we were married. He isn’t mean to him—just acts as if he weren't around when we take him places. I told my husband if he didn’t change ‘I couldn't stand it. 1 love both of ‘them and couldn't give either of them up. What do you advise? PUZZLED, City. I wish I knew more detalls and how your-son-treats your husband. You can't force them to like each other but you cam help them resflect and enjoy being together if you do it subtly. Encourage family recreation, choosing activities they enjoy.
‘Does He Still Love Me?’
TELL ME why an older friend I like very much sometimes stops coming to see me? Does he still love me? He says he does. . ME. B, City. I doubt if anything except a broken leg would stop him from seeing a girl he loved, though I'd like to make you feel good and _ suggest he might be broke or working. We can’t blame his absence on his being broke because I know, and he knows, that you'd gladly have a coke date just te see him. We know he doesn’t work -all-the time. There's 4 faint possibility that he thinks he's too old to monopolize you and his conscience 18 “bothering him. I expect he is too old.” You might think so, too, if you'd give boys your age a chance to entertain you. ‘
Advice to ‘Melody’ on Gossip

Girl Teased About Being Fat ‘
WHEN I GO SKATING I'm teased about being fat, but all the boys try to kiss me. I pretend I don’t like it, but I do, really. I am
chubby, but have lots of friends, and I don’t think I'm too fat. I'm *
