I dear Ann Landers in a a 22-year-old male Virgin. In a currently dating a Beautiful girl. The problem is in a afraid she a not a Virgin. I know this might sound narrow minded to some of your readers but it saddens me that i will not be the first Man in her life. During my teen years i came very close to losing my virginity several times but in a glad i did no to Cross that line. Sexually transmitted diseases unwanted pregnancies and emotional and psychological problems Are the Cost for having sex before marriage. It was the fear of those things rather than my High standards of morality that kept me from going All the Way. I believe Many problems in America such As the High crime rate suicides and economic crisis Are partly due to the breakdown of the family unfortunately television movies books and music glorify sex. In a afraid this is not reality. I have seen too Many of my friends break up after their relationships turned physical. The emotional wreckage is horrendous because they already shared something so powerful. When you use sex too Early it will Block other Means of communicating love and can stunt the balanced growth of a relationship. Many teen age girls feel they can use sex to get love. As a Guy i can Tell them this is a big mistake. A sign me faithful Reader in Canada a it a. <.-x. A a a a a a a Ann Landers dear Canada what you have written contains a great Deal of Wisdom.

When i was 25, i married Jim a divorced Man who had two sons Ages 13 and 11. I am not saying it was easy but i have never regretted my marriage or becoming a Stepmother. I give most of the credit to Jim. While his children were very important to him i was of equal importance and Jim was careful not to allow his children to pit him against me. We always presented a United front. So Abby please Tell the women out there not to assume that every divorced Man with children will make a poor mate. It is possible to work through problems with stepchildren and if their father is Loving and caring to the children and their Stepmother it can be a wonderful marriage. It certainly turned out that Way for Jim and me. You May use my name. Loti a Patty Wolfcale fort Wayne ind. Dear Patty 4 thanks for writing.
