I'm 19-years-old and have had three years of college. I'm *J4nga very stable young man with whom I've been acquainted for four years. My pgtftitits seem to feH Chtit 1 should wait until they advise me to become interested in someone whom they choose. I tell them that I feel I am mature enough to da tie whom I please. My boy friend and I are keeping our relationship on a high plane mentally, spiritually and physically. We plan to be married in three years when we've completed our education. I don't want to dispute with my parents, but how can I convince them that our relationship is good? A. It sounds as if you may be overreacting to your parents' disapproval of this young man. Are you sure he is the man for you? If you are absolutely sure of your love, give your parents a chance to tell you why they disapprove (if they have not already) and try to get your parents better acquainted with him in your home surroundings. Your high-plane relationship with your boy friend is certainly commendable, and by the time you have known him seven years before marriage many things will be ironed out. Husband Is Cold And Uninterested Q. Could it be that men go through the change of life or something? My husband, who is 53, used to be affectionate, but he gets colder and colder. I get so hungry for love, sometimes I can't stand it All I do is work, stay home or go to church. We never do anything or go out anywhere. What can I do? A. Many things could be involved in your situation as you describe it. Affections can cool for a variety of reasons: physical, mental and emotional. It may well be something quite apart from yourself, such as his business, that is bothering your husband. Or, perhaps he feels you are more interested in things than in him-the children, the house, etc. Whatever it is, we suggest you try to establish an honest communication between yourself and your husband. If need be, contact your local family counseling service, or talk about this situation with your pastor. As long as there is no mental deterioration in a human being, affectionate relationships can be restored. The old warmth can be recovered. Positive Thinking Doesn't Work For Her Q. Unfortunately, I have a hard time putting the principles of positive thinking to work for me. I often slip in negative thoughts which ultimately result in much unhappiness for me and my family. Your book, "The Power of Positive Thinking," is very inspiring, but why do I struggle so? I see others who have the inner peace and love which I want. I would appreciate any help you can give me. A When one has spent a good many years perfecting negative thinking, it isn't all that easy just to turn around and become a positive thinker. Reading a book about positive thinking is certainly designed to help. But one must work, really work at changing negative attitudes into positive ones. Why not try one day at a time? No negative thinking or actions today. It is much easier to concentrate on the now and not be overpowered by thoughts of the time ahead when you mustn't be negative. If each day you say, "Today, with your help, God, I will think positively," you'll find that it will become natural to take the positive approach. Just keep at it day by day and you'll succeed. Perhaps you would like to find an answer for yourself to a problem that you can share with others in There's An Answer!
