Friendship Challenges: Living Together, Celebrating, and Growing Apart

Living Together in London

Last year I was working on a TV program when suddenly my boss offered me a main job in London as a reporter with an old classmate. We decided to rent an apartment together in London downtown. At first, everything went well, but our relationship deteriorated due to disagreements and neglecting housework. Eventually, we decided to part ways for a better coexistence.

When I moved to London, I shared a flat with an old classmate named Lizzy. Initially, we got along, but as time passed, she neglected household chores and preferred partying. After two months, I moved out and lived alone, which was a better experience.

Awkward Family Christmas Dinner

During last Christmas dinner, tensions arose among my relatives due to my grandmother's behavior towards my uncle's new fiancée. The atmosphere became uncomfortable, leading to arguments and an early end to the dinner, leaving only my parents and me.
