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
