Jean loves Neil, but they have very different personalities, and she fears this would prevent a happy marriage. Neil asks her to reconsider, and she contacts her friend Gloria, married and with a new baby. Gloria says couples develop new activities and may drop old ones for various reasons. Jean discovers she enjoys some of Neil’s hobbies and interests. She’s still worried because his parents are divorced, but Neil’s father takes the blame: he never tried to modify his tastes and habits. When athletic Jean learns Neil is taking tennis lessons, she decides the marriage is back on.
