I don't remember any things about an unusual meet.

I not have a partner.

I sometimes meet girls in unusual way through talk with them on the street. There were many interesting conversations.

I thought about an unusual meet but I couldn't remember.

Hello. Many thanks for your all these English lessons. They are very usefully for me to improve my English competency.

I am a shy person. Even though i meet unusual way, i would not talk to her.I would just smile first.

This lesson helps me learn English, start with small detail of simple grammar in simple and small daily interaction within people who speak in English, and also remind me to be careful, pay attention to traffic signs, read and follow the task instructions, read and work on the tasks carefully and patiently. Thank you.

I like the conversation between them.
