Dear Virginia,

I am an instructor. In November '77, I had a female student- Marilyn-to whom I became very attached. In fact, at the end of her training, I took her out to dinner where we discovered that we loved each other very much. Marilyn and I started going together-we wanted to get married in August as soon as my divorce is final. Now came the big decision-should I tell her about Peggy.

I took my heart in my hand and told her. I showed her your book, The TV and His Wife. Let me tell you I was scared. I didn't want to lose her, yet I felt that I owed her the truth. Do you know what she said? "Big deal, so what, I'll always love you." I was in heaven. She still was a little unsure until she read your book. Now she helps me shop for clothes, helps with makeup and dressing and let's me dress whenever or as often as I want. She is what your book classes as a B+ wife. My pains are completely gone now-I feel like a 37-year-old going on 21. Marilyn, Peggy and I have a nice apartment in Barrie and we are extremely happy. In fact, Marilyn is looking at an ad for makeup right now. She is even willing to meet other TVs and their wives. She would like to write a few words to say how she feels, especially about your book that helped her to understand me, but says she is too shy. Bye for now.

Thank you,

75

Peggy
