I have a 5 string dulcimer and was told in a shop that I would need to change the strings for a different sort if I wanted to change the tuning. Is this true?

If you feel suspicious about your partner, get access to their cellphone and look at every activity on their phone.

No, you cannot do this because it does not have the same 4 strings and same 4 notes.

It depends. If your instrument is in good shape and the neck is not bent out of shape, you don't need to replace them very often. Depending on how much...

Use a safety pin to slowly pick you way through the knots. This takes patience, but it can be done. If that doesn't work, you may have to cut out...

I say you should use only one, especially if you don't have enough money for two. Just wash them thoroughly after every use so your makeup doesn't mix!
