so your friend claire

yeah she seems nice

oh you like her yeah i do

aren’t you going out with that charity

worker

what’s her name again georgia

no that’s over what happened

i liked her sometimes things just don’t

work

out let me guess

she was too clingy

yeah how do you know everyone’s

too clingy for you

anyway what about claire can you put me

in touch

why don’t you just ask her out yourself

i don’t have her number or any way to

contact her

i think she’ll be at sam’s housewarming

party on saturday

maybe you should go maybe i will

getting engaged

you hear jen’s news

no what she’s engaged

really that’s great when did it happen

a couple of weeks ago

phil proposed to her while they were on

a holiday in rome

how romantic when’s the wedding

i don’t think they’ve decided yet

i’ll have to call her to say

congratulations

did she have a ring maybe

i didn’t notice you’re useless

[Music]

good couples

[Music]

how long have you been married now

oh almost 10 years

that’s a long time no regrets

no there are ups and downs of course

but i wouldn’t change it for anything

two seem to have really good couple

yeah it works well of course

part of being a good couple is knowing

when to give each other some space

that’s true i see a lot of couples who

move in together

and they give up all the things which

make them individuals

we spend a lot of time together but we

have our own friends

our own hobbies and so on

sure i mean you don’t want to be too

dependent on each other absolutely

although you need to strike a balance

you need to make time for each other too

of course i imagine that it can be easy

to let things slip

when you’ve been together so long

yeah it’s dangerous actually

you can’t take things for granted

otherwise

your relationship will suffer

[Music]

relationship problems

[Music]

have you seen sasha lately

yeah we met for a beer the other evening

how’s he doing i haven’t seen him for

ages

not so well seems like he and maria are

having a difficult

time really i remember seeing them

together in the summer

and they seemed like the perfect match

i guess things have gone sour since then

from what he said they aren’t getting on

well at all

so they’re fighting all the time

he didn’t seem happy

what’s he going to do he wasn’t sure

do they live together yeah

that complicates things

it does maybe they’ll work things out

you should call him he’d be glad to hear

from you

i’ll give him a call tonight

[Music]

divorces and breakups

[Music]

are we still doing movie night at yours

tonight

maybe not my friend john is staying

he’s a bit of a messy situation he left

his wife

and i think it’s for good poor guy

that must be tough well don’t feel too

sorry for him

he was cheating all over the place

and he decided to walk out okay then

poor wife soon to be ex-wife i suppose

probably they’re that kind of couple

though

they break up get back together break up

again

this time though i don’t see how they

can patch things up

yeah i don’t know them but i don’t think

i could stay with someone who cheated on

me

it’s too big a betrayal i agree

i guess it’s for them to deal with

anyway can we do the movie night at your

house instead

please say yes i’ve already told

everyone that it’s at your place

yeah sure

flirting with someone
