when you met them

where you met them

and say what it is about them you like so much.

I’d like to talk about my boyfriend … Jose … we?got to know?each other at University almost 4 years ago … we were in the same department … initially we were?just good friends?and used to go out in a group with our other friends … when Jose went back to Spain for the holidays we would?keep in touch with?each other … then one year he invited me to come to Spain with him … ?and that’s when we?fell for?each other I think … so you couldn’t really say it waslove at first sightas it had been over a year since we’d met … but we reallyhit it offand by the time we got back to university in September we were able to tell all our friends that we werein a relationship… what do I like about Jose … well he’s very kind … very funny … and very supportive … and we’re really?well matched?in our interests … he hasn’tpopped the questionyet though … we’ve talked about getting married and I think we’re both ready?tosettle downand have children ?… we’ll just have to wait and see …

Part 3

Do you think marriage is still as important as ever?

Yes … it certainly is in my country … I think the problem for some people is a lack of commitment … all relationshipshave their ups and downs…. but some people prefer tobreak uprather than?working at?the relationship.

to have ups and downs:?to have good and bad times

to break up: to end a romantic relationship

What do you think is the ideal time to get married?

Personally … I think you should wait until you’ve found yourself first … decided if you want a career … perhaps do some travelling … you should do this beforetying the knot… although if youfall head over heels in loveplans like these can easily be forgotten.

to fall head over heels in love: to start to love someone a lot

Is it important to keep in contact with our friends when we’re in a relationship?

Absolutely … it’s so easy todrift apartfrom your friends when you?fall in love?… but I think both partners should try not?to lose touch with?their friends ?… that’s the best way to have a?healthy relationship?with your partner.
