Dear S.M.,
The real pity of your letter .
that your boyfrie bas no . dea

void him and that i very
fooli . If you can be hon . ith
urself bout your feelings for

yo ould try to be ho with'
him. You don't h ve to hurt the
man's pride but let him kno
th t you don't feel the e way
t he does. Think be d the
terial gifts and think u
e hurting this man by pretend­
to care.

DearT.E.,
You have a problem that you
can very easily solve. Stop lend­
ing your friend clothes. Make
sure you tell her why you have
topped the next time she wants
to wear something. As far as her
cats are co cern, you have a fe
choices. Be ho and tell your
friend h you feel abo her
three cats and their hair. You
could also have your friend visit
you your home. People j�
don't bring their cats when they
are out for a visit. I am ure that
your friend ill appreciate
honesty.
Sincerely,
Erik Washington
