The Family Cooncu not fiva advice: It merely reports on problems that have oeen with by responsible agencies and counselors. i Laura S.-She should break i has been going on for several off the relationship. Betty IL-But I love him. Laura S.-I am trying to help out my friend who has gotten into a lot of trouble, partly because of me. I introduced Betty to Ed. I was sure she would like him and she did-a little too much. She was swept off her feet and got involved in an affair with him almost at once. This months and she says sne wants to marry him. He ap pears to care for her a lot, but is very vague about mar riage. ' I saw that she should break off the relationship entirely as he has proven that he is not a man to be counted on. He isn't the sort of a person who would make a good hus band. But Betty insists she Ji never love anyone else Belly R.-I don't think Ed is as bad as Laura says. I recog nize that what has happened was at least half my fault If I had resisted fa would have resDeptorf wishes and still kept me as a friend. Ed has manv mm:. ii.- I would like to find in a hus band. He is interesting and has a good sense of humor and he is very attractive to me. At times he can be very ?weet. I really l0Ve him very much and don't want to break it off. The trouble Is that he Clams UD at anv montinn nf marriage. If I get stubborn, I don't hear from him for weeks on end. By the time, he calls again I am so glad to hear from him and so eager for contact with him that I take the easiest course. The Council: Betty has in deed gotten herself into a peck of trouble. From the looks of things, she has gam bled away any possibility of happiness she could have had with this man. - Unfortunately, Betty has also invested a good deal of herself in Ed. Her "love" con sists to a great extent of her awareness of all that she has given to and hoped for from this relationship. It will be hard for Betty to swallow the fact that her emo tional investment up to this point will yield no return. She'll probably have to step out with a loss. The more she puts into the relationship, the more she will have to lose under the present terms. If Betty sincerely loves Ed she will not be able to go on accepting the physical ges tures of love without the un derlying content. If she still wants affection and tender ness from him, and she still has some hope of marriage to him, she must give up the re lationship as it now exists. She .must make clear to him what she really does want. If Ed is not willing to give this, he is of no use to her any- Switzerland is a confedera tion of 22 cantons, including three that were joined in the 13th century. way. It is just possible that a firm and clear-cut decision on her part will force him to sit up and take a new view of her and their relationship. Betty should make it her business to gain a better understanding of her emo tional needs as a woman and as a self-respecting human be ing through consultation with a doctor and a clergyman.
