Claire gives advice about love to many
Dear Claire,
Is it possible to love two
men at the same time? I love
my boyfriend at home very
much and yet I find that I am
attracted to a man here in
Greensboro. Each day I feel
more and more deeply for the
man here. I wonder if my
feelings for this man in
Greensboro are real or if they
are just reactions to the lone
liness I feel about my boy
friend at home. Do I love
them both?
TORN BETWEEN
TWO LOVERS
Dear TORN BETWEEN
TWO LOVERS,
The possibility of being in
love with two men at the
same time does exist. I can
not determine your true feel
ings about the man in Greens
boro. If you find that you are
becoming more attracted to
this man, you should decide if
you want this relationship to
develop any further, or stay
involved in your present rela
tionship with your boyfriend
at home.
Dear Claire,
I am twenty years old and
I have never been in love be
fore. I have felt deeply for
men, but not loved them. I
don’t think I’m a lesbian or
anything, but the fact re
mains that I have never given
all of myself to a man. I’m
getting older and I’m running
out of time and patience.
Please advise me.
LOVELESS
Dear LOVELESS,
Not to have fallen in love
by the age of twenty is noth
ing unusual. It’s fine to have
deep feelings for someone and
still get fulfillment from the
relationship without being in
love. Love has to grow from
within, and different individ
uals experience it for the first
time at different points in
their lives. There is plenty of
time for you to fall in love.
Just because you haven’t yet,
doesn’t mean you never will.
Dear Claire,
I am only interested in men

Cosmotique answers health and beauty questions
Your Questions and Answers to:
Health and Beauty
Jennifer Wells
Q. What is the easiest way to
remove eye make-up?
A. Eye make-up, once applied,
can be stubborn to remove, but
you must remember that your
eyes are very delicate and they
should never be rubbed or
harshly treated. There are cos
metic eye make-up remover
sticks available in drugstores
and at department store make
up counters, A good one to try
is Regime eye make-up remov
er stick by Jermaine Monteil.
Another simple way to remove
eye make-up is through use of
a cotton ball and plain baby
oil. Dab a little oil onto cotton
ball and apply gently over
eyelid until all make-up i.s
gone.
Q. Over the summer, I put on
some weight and now all my
winter clothes are fitting me
a little tightly. What kind of
diet would you suggest?
A, Before you decide on any type
of diet you must first decide
how much weight you want to
lose and how much time you
want to give yourself to lose
the weight. Crash-diets are
never good methods of losing
weight. Start by cutting cal
ories that are not important
essentials to your body’s health.
Also I’d suggest that while
dieting you take vitamins with
iron so you can be sure you’re
not neglecting your body’s
basic needs.
Q, I am a clothing and design
major hero at Bennett. I like
the field I’ve choscn to stud.y,
but at times I get discouraged
because I am not as artistically
inclined as my fellow clothing
and design peers. Am I in the
wrong field?
A, According to Mary Stephens,
Chairman of The Fashion In
stitute of Design and Merchan
dising, “The fashion design
faculty believes that a fashion
designer should be creative,
imaginative, original and capa
ble of translating ideas into
into finished garments. Artistic
talent is an asset, of course,
but motivation and willingness
to be trained are as important
as natural ability.” If you have
the determination to pursue
this glamorous career in cloth
ing and design I suggest you
are in the right major.

who are at least ten years
older than me. I will be nine
teen next month and I have
never enjoyed a date with a
man who wasn’t at least
twenty-eight years old. Am I
weird? Younger men just
don’t satisfy my needs as well
as older men do. Is something
wrong with me?
BIG GIRL
Dear BIG GIRL,
You don’t have to be weird
to prefer dating older men for
your own personal reasons.
Perhaps if you dated men
closer to your age more fre
quently, you may discover you
have more in common with
them than you realized, and
some of your dates could turn
out to be quite successful.
If anyone is interested in
writing to Claire, please send
all mail to P. 0. Box 396 or
