Romantic Secrets #16

A man pines for a woman he loves who is already engaged, torturing himself with thoughts of her while she remains unaware of his feelings. When he encounters her with her fiancé Tom, he learns that her name is Lydia Hall and that she had lied to Tom about her past, claiming she had never been engaged before when in fact she had been thrown together often at dinners with Tom and had imagined he loved her. The story concludes with the narrator witnessing Lydia and Tom together, realizing the futility of his unreciprocated love as she departs with her fiancé. The issue also includes an advice column titled "Advice on Life, Love, and Lemons" addressing various teenage romantic dilemmas.
