I first met Mike when I was looking for someone to share the house I was renting. I put an advertisement in the local student newspaper and he was one of the people who answered it. When we met, we hit it off straightaway and I told him he could move in.
Living with Mike was fun. We soon found out that we had a lot in common and quickly became close friends. We always had really good discussions about everything that was important things like cooking. We also liked the same music and that’s important when you’re sharing a house. We fell out a couple of times about the housework. Mike thinks I’m untidy but I think life’s too short to worry about things like that.
When we graduated three years ago, we went out separate ways and since then our lives have been very different. I went back to my hometown and got a job as a production assistant for art exhibitions. Mike thinks I’m crazy because money is very important to him now, but he doesn’t have time to spend with his family and his friends. I don’t see him very often. When he comes down for the weekend we have a laugh, but our lifestyles are so different that we don’t have very much to talk about.
