Show BLIND DATES mrs post will you tell me Dw whether hether I 1 was prudish in my point of view and whether you think I 1 an am lust ills missing a lot of good times which could otherwise be mine this Is what happened A short while ago before college reopened my college roommate w was as going out with her boy friend to an evening cabaret we both live lire in chicago her fler mother did not want her to go to a late dance with the boy alone so she asked me to go with them and they had a blind d date ate for me with a friend of 0 his lie was not especially interesting and only a fair dancer but we ne had a pleasant evening I 1 care if I 1 neer davv him film again but then too I 1 would just ns as soon go out with him film again it if there was no one else who offered A few evenings ago this hoy boy e called all up p and said lie had a friend from st paul a young business man who was the finest und kind of man and coming to chicago for two days d ays and that tic lie had made a I 1 blind date for me with the st paul man to take me out for dinner and go to lance dance afterwards lie ite himself go out with us because ile he Is on the football squad lie ile said the st paul man would call tor for me at seven and that I 1 would have hare a wonderful time I 1 dont know why I 1 behaved as I 1 ib did L 1 ifould could not help it I 1 told 1 him din that a t having my time engaged for me to go out with ia a total stranger was not my idea of a wonderful time rod and that nothing would induce me to make that kind of a blind dite and that I 1 was not a taxi tax dancer and then I 1 hung bung up now of course everything Is all wrong we are back in college my roommate will hardly speak to me because her boy friend Is angry because I 1 was rude to his friend finally my roommate said she would leave it to you to decide who was right and who was as wrong answer it seems to me that you were right it was entirely proper to go out with your roommate and her friend and whoever they might have invited to make a fourth but to have gone out with the st paul man as coolly arranged for or you by a practical stranger or in fact to go out alone with any man you did not know unless under very extenuating circumstances would have been extremely cheap at the same time you may have been rude in the way you refused to be a taxi dancer this depends on whether your voice was amiably casual or angry so you see seel |
