Welcome to The Love Line, the most popular and trusted call-in radio talk show!  Working with a partner, you will now create a dialogue between Petrarch and the talk show host.  Petrarch has called in seeking advice on his love for Laura, a woman whom he loves, but who does not return his affection. In the space below, write the questions and concerns you think Petrarch would express to the host. Next, respond to the questions as a talk show host would, giving your most sincere advice.

For example:
Talk show host: “We have a hopeless romantic on the line.  Hopeless romantic, are you there?”
Petrarch: “Yes, I’m here (sniffling). I just don’t know what to do.  I’m desperately in love with a woman who doesn’t even know I’m alive.”
