Dear Ann Landers,
am twenty and have been married four years. My husband (who is twenty-six) has been having an affair with a sixteen-year-old girl. She used to sit with our children but I stopped calling her when I suspected something was going on. When I found some love letters from her in my husband's shirt pocket (she had mailed them to his office), I 197 invited her to come over for a talk. She was very contrite (almost pathetic) and eager to do the right thing. She prom-ised never to see my husband again. Well, she is seeing him, almost every night, and I don't know what to do. I can't get a straight sentence out of him. He is the world's biggest liar. Our religion allows only one marriage and this is it-lousy or not. The girl is underage, and I'd like to know if I can do anything legal to break this up.-Comsilk
Dear Comsilk,
You can have your husband put in jail. But what would you have besides a husband in jail? The girl is the same age you were when you married the heel. If you'd like to write a letter for other sixteen-year-olds who think they are in love, I'd be happy to print it. For now, your best bet is to meet the competition with the type of ammunition you think would be most effective.
