"Going Steady" #1 is a teen-oriented anthology featuring relationship advice and romantic stories presented from a teenager's perspective. The issue includes a narrative about a young woman named Lenore who, as a bookworm focused on her studies, initially rejected a boy's advances, only to later regret her decision when she encounters him on a date with another girl. The magazine also contains advisory articles addressing common dating dilemmas, such as whether one should be a "slave to your steady," how to handle disagreements, and tips for maintaining healthy teenage relationships.
