Ttr.s is how I handled the problem. My wife is 31, a national red head with a great figure. We've been married 10 years and never had any children. The third year of our marriage Myrna admit ted to an affair with her boss a married man with five children. She said they were deeply in love and he was trying to "work out a settlement with his wife so they could be married." I went to see the man and told him that since their love was so great, he could have her. The guy almost swallowed his cigar. He said he had no intention of breaking up his marriage and of fered to find Myra another job at once. Two years later she got involv ed with a single man. She said finances were delaying their plans to go off together. I went to see this fellow and told him I'd be happy to set Myra free. I even offered to lend him some money so he could marry her. He almost passed out in front of my eyes. He said he felt like a big jerk and promised never to see her again. After these two experiences my wife finally got it through that red head that these guys were just amusing themselves. She admitted she'd been a fool and I've never had a bit of trouble with her since. Relaxed. Dear Ann: Please don't toss my letter aside as a fantastic story. This problem is ruining my life. Tell me if it's possible for a per son to say things which are not true while under an anesthetic.
