Abigail:
Majlinda’s about to move in with her English boyfriend. She already spends a few days a week at his flat - but from now on, she’ll be spending every day with him. Will they be happy sharing a small flat?

Living together can be difficult but is it a challenge she’s ready for? Living together might be a challenge for Majlinda and her boyfriend, but they get on very well together, they have a good relationship, so Majlinda thinks they’ll be happy to make concessions - living as a couple not as two single people. However - trying to live together in a small flat isn’t the only problem Majlinda had to think about.

In Britain these days it’s quite usual for people to live together without being married. Of course that’s not true in many countries - including Albania. Majlinda thought long and hard about the best way to tell her mother about the move - and eventually she found the perfect answer - she told her aunt instead! When she was sure that her mother knew all about the plan from her aunt and had had time to think about it, Majlinda telephoned her mother and they talked.

So far so good - and now the big day is approaching - just two weeks to go before Majlinda moves in with her boyfriend, and she has yet more news for her mother. But this time it’s news her mother will definitely like: Majlinda and her boyfriend are going to get married next year. So living together will be the perfect opportunity to get to know each other and Majlinda is very excited now.

Majlinda:
It is a big change because I will be with my boyfriend every day now and every night. So far I have been staying there, (it’s not that I haven’t) I mean I have been there every other day, but nowadays it will be every day in there, so it's a challenge in a way, but erm... We have a good relationship with each other so I think we will make concessions to each other.

- First of all I didn’t tell her (mother), I talked to my aunt first... And then my aunt told her in a way and then I phoned her and told her that I am moving with my boyfriend. I was a little bit worried you know I mean it’s different culture here different way of living so I had to know when to tell my mum and how to tell the news to her.

I am excited because I am thinking I know that we have decided to get married next year, so it’s good in a way that we are living together first, so that we know more about each other when we are really going to be married so ... Yeah I am excited about that.
