Advice to Lovelorn From Beatrice Fairfax
Dear Miss Fairfax, I am Tim, in love with a girl of seventeen. My jealousy makes me lash out and I fear I might harm him. We quarreled after my drinking and have not spoken since. Miss Fairfax, how can I take steps to win her back? She is wise to break with me until I stop drinking and control my rages. The old maxim says knowledge of fault is the first step to improvement. I know I drink and hurt her. Please advise.
