Sweethearts #62

The issue contains two stories. "Dare I Hope" follows a woman who has long harbored unrequited feelings for Dr. Bruce Martin, a charming doctor who flirts with nurses but seems unaware of her existence, until a chance encounter at work leads to a romantic connection. "Is Love Really Blind?" presents a philosophical narrative about Slemja, a beautiful, educated woman who falls in love with and marries Walter, a working-class man without her educational background, exploring whether love allows people to see qualities in others that the rest of the world overlooks, and ultimately showing their lasting marriage of twenty-five years with five children.
