page six Colborne Chronicle Thursday, December 11, 1969 I'm frigid, I guess oEAR DORIS -- I have always found it hard to show affection. Now I am 30. I am er-jaged to marry a man 35. I love him. but he is always the first to squeeze my hand or give me a hug. It leaves me feeling unhappy with myself when my boy friend says: "It would be nice if just once in a while you would put your arms around nla instead!" Will this cause future heartaches if I marry him' Arm's Length OEAR ARM'S -- It might -- if you let it stand at that. We need the human touch for fulfilment. Demonstrations of affection can actually help love grow. The psychologists tell us we run not only because we are afraid; also, the more we run the scareder we get!

They are all very close friends. Is it always necessary for both host and hostess to escort each couple to the door when they leave at different intervals, or is it acceptable for the earlier couples leaving to say their goodbyes downstairs, and either host or hostess to escort them to the door? Wondering DEAR WONDERING -- No need for both to go -- but it is proper etiquette for at least one of the home team to see guests to the door. DEAR DORIS -- Wher this boy takes me out with a jup of others we have a good time, but when we go anywhere alone it is a boring evening. Is it fair to him for me to let him think I like him the same way he likes me? He has asked me to go out again, to dinner and a show. I don't think I should, but my mother thinks I should. To Go Or Not To G< DEAR TO GO OR NOT -- No sense in leading him on: yet we can't expect every date to be terrific.
