The Family Council
Editor'! note: The Family Council consists of m Judge, m psychiatrist,
three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a woman's editor and two writers, Each
article Is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give
advice; It merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by
responsible agencies and counselors.
Bertram S. She should break
her engagement now.
Debbie K. I want to wait un
til he comes home.
Bartram S. I am a young
man of 20 in a heck of a pickle.
My best friend, Dan, is en
gaged and has been overseas
in service for the past year.
While he was away, he suggested
that his fiance and I go out
occasionally together so she
wouldn't be too lonesome. We
have all been friends since we
were kids, to it seemed natural
for us to get together anyway.
Well, we started going out
and one thing led to another.
I kissed her good night, kidding
ly at first, as proxy for Dan.
We laughed about it, but gradu
ally we started feeling differ
ently about each other. Sudden
ly we realized we were in love.
: I want to marry Debbie, and
feel that she should write to
Dan at once and break -the en
gagement. She doesn't want to
do this.
Debbia K. Dan will be home
in a few months and I think
there will be time enough then
to tell him. It seems too mean
to break this on him while he is
so far from home.
Dan writes about nothing but
his plans and hopes for our
marriage. His letters are filled
with affection. He says he thinks
about me all the time. Bert and
I feel like real heels to do this
to' him.
Dan is a very wonderful guy
aftti I am worried about the ef
fect this will have on him, not
only where I am concerned,
but because of Bert. He thinks
the world of Bert and trusts him
like a brother.
The way I figure it, the best
thing would be to wait until
Dan comes home and then let
him catch on by himself, gradu
ally. Or we'll wait a little while
and tell him ourselves.
Tha Council: This "heck of a
pickle" could be easily dissolved
by a general admission by Bert
ram and Debbie that they know
very little about this "love
thing and do not know their
own minds enough to marry any
one at this time.
When a woman is mature
enough to be engaged, she
doesn't make a habit of going
out with other men to avoid
being lonesome. She finds other
ways of occupying her time
She doesn't "kiddingly" kiss
anyone and she doesn't decide,
on the basis of a momentary
thrill, that a new love has en
tered her life.
Bertram and Debbie offer
nothing to back their case, ex
cept that they now feel attracted
to one another. What would hap
pen if Bertram were sent over
seas tomorrow? Would their love
stick? Doubtful. Would they
still want to marry if each met
another and got kissed by
"proxy"? Very doubtful.
In the meantime, it is wrong
to let Dan go on believing that
he is coming home to a loving
fiancee and an early marriage.
Debbie should let him know that
she feels she is not ready for
marriage.
She should not mention Bert
ram because he 'is not really
involved. He is simply a pawn
in her own uncertainty. Bert
ram would do well to step out
