# My Romantic Adventures #116 This issue contains two romantic stories. "What's a Girl to Do?" follows a woman desperate to find a man who consults Dr. Loring for advice; the doctor counsels her to be intelligent and strategic rather than passive in matters of romance. "My Kind Girl!" tells of a Navy captain who falls for a woman named Viola during a pleasure yacht cruise, but their relationship is tested when he becomes distracted by another passenger; the story culminates when a storm strikes the ship, seemingly destroying his nearly-completed seascape painting of Viola, though the couple ultimately reunites on the beach.

My Kind of Girl!
4 pp · Romance

Captain Sprague takes a job captaining a playboy's yacht and immediately writes off all the guests—including a seemingly innocent young woman named Holly Smith—as greedy fortune hunters. But when Holly appears genuinely frightened at the voyage's final costume party, Sprague discovers she's not the phoney he thought, and his cynical heart finds reason to believe again. A story about second chances and the girl who proves herself worth the risk.

What's a Girl to do?
6 pp · Romance

A young woman named Enid seeks help from Dr. Richard Loring, a marriage counselor, struggling with the puzzle of how to meet men and build real connections. Through case studies of girls who've tried waiting passively and pushing too aggressively—each ending in disappointment—Dr. Loring teaches Enid that the real answer lies in reading each situation thoughtfully and responding with intelligence rather than formula. Watch as Enid puts his wisdom to work, discovering that the right approach depends entirely on the man and the moment.

The Material Things
2 pp · Romance

A young woman named Peggy has grown accustomed to measuring her worth—and her romance—by the gifts Ron lavishes on her, but when he proposes with his family's modest heirloom ring instead of the extravagant diamond she imagined, her true priorities are laid bare. "The Material Things" is a cautionary tale about what happens when luxury matters more than love, and the hard truth that some lessons arrive too late to change the ending.
