"Dear Anne I am mar" ,10 to a man who cannot forget ny past, I wasn't told the things t girl should know, so. when I r,•ot engaged to a bey who was Ioing overseas I did thinge -:egret to this day, (He con- winced me it was all, right be, :ause we were planning to get harried.) , .. When he got home found I didn't love him any nue, 'and we broke off. .,"Before I married my bus 'and a year ago, I told him all his. He declared it didn't mat- er, but now every time he links of it he gets mad and :mils me ugly names. Always ne is sorry afterward, but at the time it breaks My heart, He has even spoken of divorce in some of his rages — then tells rne to forget it. "I am sure he, leves me; in, every other way he, treats, me wonderfully, He shows. me, off like he was proud of me. Also, I get along well with his. people. "If only 'he would trust me again! I have done everything a good wife is expected' te," but. still he can't seem to forget' what happened. What can I do?
