From: Steve
Subject: I need some advice
I’m really in love with my girlfriend who I have been going out with for three months. The
only problem is that her family has recently moved to another town and I will only get to
see her during the holidays. Now, another girl in my class has said she likes me.
What’s your opinion? Do you think our relationship will work? Should we split up? Should
I go out with this other girl? Please let me know what you think.
