could be. To "fall in love" with such a person is much like placing a dollar bill under a magnifying glass and then trying to buy a Cadillac with it. It won't work out — and neither will a love affair with an illusion.
There is another familiar situation in which the thing a girl interprets as love is really shadow, not substance. Suppose that a girl's best friend was married last year; her sister was married last Christmas, her cousin was married in the Spring, her second best girl friend is being married in June, and there are two or three weddings scheduled for the late Summer.
This girl has attended all the showers', and has been a member of most of the wedding parties. She has worn blue, pink, yellow, and lilac bouffant dresses. She has caught the bride's bouquet twice.
The girl is in danger. If she has a steady boy friend, she is likely to become infected by the idea that maybe the calm, pleasant friendship she feels for him is the apex of her potential romantic reaction. "I've never felt the way a girl in love is supposed to feel, so maybe I'm not built that way — mayte I'm the casual type," she is likely to tell herself.
The boy, too, may be caught up in the romantic atmosphere. He may think, "Well, a man has to marry some time. I like Janet and I know she likes me. We've known one another a long time — so why not?" And, after the wedding toast, he may ask the girl why they don't collect rice and old shoes on their own account.
It is fairly safe to prophesy that, within two or three years, either the man or the girl in this case will have met the person who has the indescribable ability to awaken the latent emotional response which exists in everyone. But by that time, the elements of tragedy also exist in the situation.
Every girl should be taught that social response to the romance of others should not be confused with love, love, in the
personal sense. After all, no sensible person who looks out of a window to find the rain pelting down, goes at once to stand under the shower just to be wet, loo.
The same warning should be issued to a girl who takes the first long trip of her life. The term "shipboard romance" has come to mean any transitory emotional connection which has come to nothing, and that should be pointed out to the breathless traveler standing amid her shiny new hat boxes and steamer trunks.
It is easy for a girl to think she has fallen in love with a cowboy at a dude ranch, or with a lifeguard at the beach, or with a Mountie in the Canadian Rockies, but this reaction isn't love at ail. It is merely a favorable emotional response to newness, strangeness, and natural beauty of vacation spots; it is only the heart's announcement that all of nature is inspiring and that, in its midst, we — who are a part of mankind — admire our fellow creatures.
The "love" felt under such circumstance should be put to the test of meeting the man in scenes with which the girl is entirely familiar. During the War, many a marriage which had been contracted when the man wore khaki went to pieces when his back-to-earth-at-last wife saw him in jeans and a plaid shirt driving a hot rod when he was supposed to be selling groceries.
At this point I can imagine that a good many girls would like to observe, "If all of these things AREN'T love, then what is?"
Again, let me say that I'm not an authority, but it seems to me that it is true love if love goes on, smiling and proud, when the questions listed below can be answered with a positive "Yes."
Do you have many tastes and interests in common?
Does being with him give you a feeling of ease and assurance?
Does he expect to live up to ideals which you have expressed, and does he expect you to live up to the highest
