said try not to let a fellow know that you care a great deal for him well I 1 do care for him and no doubt he has found it out but really I 1 have been told and I 1 believe it that he has said he will not coax any girl nor he wont bother a girl that care for him please sympathize with me he has heard I 1 have another fellow and that I 1 like this thi other fellow better than him and that I 1 am going to quit him the first time he comes over he lives twenty miles from here before I 1 knew about what ho he had heard I 1 wrote him a letter inviting him over to a dance he ha neither answered the letter nor came cama to the dance I 1 am going away to school within the next two weeks I 1 would surely like to see him before leaving but I 1 dont like to write to him again when he answer the last

misunderstanding through some unknown party please tell me what to do thanking you very much I 1 am a simple young lady living iri in utah you cannot afford to give your love lova unbidden my dear you admit you care for him and also say you think he knows it then later you say he think you care for him dearie if a man loves you he will tell you about it he just cant help it and it is his privilege to do so not yours youn to tell him you have a right to have other friends if you are not engaged to this one and if he loved you he would be very careful not to believe anything he was not sure of if he received your letter he hw should have been gentleman enough to answer it regardless of misunderstandings perhaps he did not receive it in that case you might write him a note telling him you are going away ile he seems to be a worthy young man and as such should be shown every courtesy but not to the extent of sacrificing your dignity I 1 do sympathize with you and I 1 am sure this affair will work out in a way that is best for you |
