Com- municate With Him—Man Prefers to Be the Hunter Rather Than the Hunted. Dear Miss Grey: As an appreciative reader of your column in The Star, I am coming to you for advice in a matter that means a lot to me, Last October I attended a house party and there met a| young man in whom I took a great deal of interest. The| next week after the party he asked me to attend a dance with him and I accepted. Since that time I have been out with him twice. The last time he took me out was just before Christmas, and on leaving he promised to telephone me the next week, but failed to do so, I excused him to myself, thinking that he probably was busy and overlooked it. I sent him a} Christmas card, and received one from him. He has never called me, though, and it makes me feel very “blue,” as 1 think of him all of the time. Do you think he really cares for me? Do you think I should call him and invite him to my home? What could I do to have him come and see me again? I really care for him. LONESOME. I'm afraid that I can’t tell you how to regain the young man’s interest without losing his respect. It would certainly not do to call him, for if he cared enough about seeing you again, and you have treated him cordially, he has appar- ently no reason for not communicating with you before now. Haven't you permitted yourself to think too much of a casual friendship? I think you have. There was really noth- ing serious in his asking you out a time or two, or even in his sending you a greeting card. Of course I agn in no position to judge whether or not the man cares for you in the way that you mean, Your letter seems to indicate that he was nothing more than friendly toward you, and since he has made no effort to communicate with you for so long a time, it seems doubtful if he cares to continue that friendship, Just forget this man—center your interest in something, or someone else, and you'll be surprised how quickly your “blues” will take on a rose hue. Keep in mind the fact that, in aptte of modern theories to the contrary, woman must stand by in silence until man shows his preference!
