As We Live
By ELIZABETH HILLOCK. PH.D.
Old Lot Letters Often
Lead To Marital Unrest
It can be fun to read over old
live letters, but it can also lead
to trouble.
(Q) "Whenever I gel blue and
depressed, I read over the letters
my husband wrote me when we
were going to
gether, before
and after our
engage m e n t.
He went to
work in an
other stale and
I saw him only
occai ionally
during our en
gagemenl, but
I heard from
him every day. He wrote real
love letters, and they made me
so happy I could hardly wait un
til he was established in busi
ness so we could be married.
"I kept all his letters and read
them over and over again. We
have been married 12 years and
have two children. My husband
is a changed man not the ardent
lover of our courtship days. I
miss the love I used to get from
him, although he is a faithful
husband,- a good father and a
capable provider. I find that the
letters cheer me up for a time,
but then I get depressed again
thinking of how things used to
be. My mother tells me I
shouldn't relive the past, since
things never remain the same. Do
you think she is right?" Mrs. P.C.
(A) I think your mother is
dead right about this matter. To
avoid any temptation to reread
the old love letters, why not
have a bonfire and burn all of
themT
You may hata to do this be
cause it will suggest you are
getting rid of a happy romantic
part of your past life. However,
old love letters can be a source
of trouble. The sooner they are
disposed of, the better.
Your husband has changed
with time, just as you have. But
that does not mean he no longer
loves you. His love has changed,
but it is still there, or he would
not be a good husband and fa
ther. You cannot expect a man who
is approaching middle life and
has the responsibility of provid
ing for a family to be the same
ardent lover as a college boy.
His love today is a mature one,
not to be compared with the
youthful passion he expressed in
his letters.
