I recently got a couple more recent digests at the same area Safeway I mentioned I had been meaning to write about them but I don't have them mear me now >:( .
However the odd thing was that in one digest TWO DIFFERENT STORIES ! referred to the concept of " going steady " - and they weren't Fifties/early Sixties stories - Really , who talks about " going steady " anymore ?Or since thelate Sixties , iF that ? - but , one was the , I believe , second part of that booklength first Archie-Valerie story from a few years ago in which the Lodges at the movies see Archarie and , noting that Archie is not G. S. w/Betty or Ronnie , decode not to get involved .
Another one was likely a 00s Satn Goldberg Betty tory from the old 32-page title too it had Bett thinking " Archie is finally going to ask me to go steady ! " !
GOING STEADY :D ????????????????????

I could see it for the Lodges and their reaction — it's likely what
they grew up with, so how they'd think of it ...
Betty ... ::) Justifiable as a nostalgic romantic, who'd love to be considered in that sort of relationship by the boy she's so (fairly literally) crazy about
It does seem like archaic terminology, but on the other hand, I was wracking my brain trying to think of what IS the current parlance for couples in an exclusive committed dating relationship, then? Or is that just something nobody admits to or talks about anymore?

He or She is my "regular(steady) boo"? Interesting question. :smiley6600:
