Marjorie
Many years ago I used to play tennis with a man called Roger. He usually beat me but I
remember how kind he was. We lost touch when I got married and I thought I’d never see
him again. That was 30 years ago. When I retired last year, I needed a new activity,
especially as I had also recently got divorced, so I took up golf. One day I was going around
the course alone, when I saw a man, also playing on his own. When he turned round, I
realized it was my old friend! We couldn’t believe it! After that we started playing regularly.
Yesterday, Roger proposed in the middle of the golf course – he’d put a ring inside a golf
ball! I couldn’t believe it when I saw the ring, but I said ‘yes’!
Paul
I was looking for a flatmate a few months ago because I had just split up with my partner and
she had moved out. To forget her, I started working out at the gym after work. I slowly got to
know Steve who was often there at the same time, although we didn’t become friends until
we were both warming up one day, and he said he was looking for somewhere to live as his
girlfriend had just dumped him. I told him that I had a room in my flat and that I was looking
for a flatmate. He moved in two days later. We’ve become good mates and we both agree
that we’re much easier to live with than our ex-girlfriends!
Liz
I had recently moved to Oxford from Bristol when I decided to run the London Marathon. I
didn’t want to train alone so I advertised for a running partner at my local gym, and Harriet
got in touch. We met for coffee and got on really well. It was amazing how many things we
had in common, for example she had recently moved to Oxford, too. While we were getting
fit we also became close friends.
Unfortunately I got injured three weeks before the race and couldn’t take part. I was sad
about the race, but am delighted about my new friendship. And we’re already thinking about
next year ...
Example: Marjorie played tennis with Roger when she was younger.
