Dear
De r Eri ,
little over wee go, I
met man while out on a date
with another gentleman. I was
very impre by him, not only
w s he good 100 ing but kind
and con iderate, He wanted
very much to meet me and
he did. He did it all without
emb rrassing my d te and I was
very happy about that, becau
I ould not want him hurt.
en we thought my date
wasn't looking we exchanged
telephone numbers. I told him
that- my date and I were not
rious about each other and
that this wa only our third or
fourth date. I really didn't •
want thi guy to get away from
me and at the same time 1 want­
ed to re pect the man I was
with. Later that evening my
old date wanted to know if I
h d given my number to the
guy. I lied to him. Since that
night I have had dinner twice
with this new man . . . and
breakfast. e like each other
a lot and plan to spend more
time tether. y problem
is ith myoId friend, he'
till calling and he wants to
e me again. I don't know what
to y to him becau I have
alre dy lied. He has been
leavin me ge and I haven't
been returning them. I don't
kno what I ould do.

Dear rik
I are an partment with
ery ni e youn oman.
e have become good fr] nds.
hat help hen you live in a
all partment. The other
evening e wa all excited
about ne man and she as
hopin that he ould call that
evening. He did and she was on
cloud nine. I heard her invite
him over that evening. he as
thrilled when he id yes.
en he arrived at the door I
pani ked. Thi a the same
man that I had dated once.
y first impul wa to cIo
the door in his f e but at that
moment my roommate came
into he room. On my one and
only date with this man, he
became very aggre sive with me
and I h d to literally fight him.
Once I got out of his car, I
rik
h d to catch a bu home. I
never w him again and I
never told anyone. I didn't
know what to say to my room­
mate and I ill don't. Do
you think that I should tell
her what happened to me?
She has only been out with him
once. I think that she is plan­
ning to see him again. If some­
thing should happen to her I
ould feel a if it w re my
fault. But if he has changed?
Plea help.

Dear Erik,
I have a problem and I am
not sure what to do about it.
I have never been able to get
along with my step-mother since
I was a teenager. ow that I
am 27, its not important to me
but] love my father very much.
Last week my best girlfriend
and I were ou t shopping to­
gether hen we saw my step­
mother and a much younger
man. She was leaning all over
him. My friend said to me
'Look at ay and Decem­
ber '. She didn't know it was
my step-mother and I didn't
say anything. I don't know
ho the young man is. Do
you think that I should say
mething to her? I ould
never say anything to father.
O.R.
