My new boyfriend, Luke, is an ordinary guy. I’m sure you have met this type of person before. Actually, I’m sure you have met plenty of people like him.
My boyfriend’s really nice and he always tries to help everyone. Whoever asks him a question, Luke’s always politepolite polite. I have never heard him being ruderude rude or awfulawful awful to someone.
I’m really happy that we’re together. I was looking for a father to my future children, and I’m sure Luke is going to be a great one.
I was amazed by his similarity to my previousprevious previous boyfriend, Daiko, too. He’s as intelligentintelligent intelligent as Daiko, just as talkativetalkative talkative as Daiko, and as supportivesupportive supportive as him, but luckily not as tidytidy tidy. I love talking, but I hate cleaning. I guess you might call me messymessy messy, but never quietquiet quiet! That’s typical when you’re an artisticartistic artistic person like me.
When my friends meet Luke, they say “He’s as nice as your previous boyfriend.” I smile but I know he’s nicer. He’s nicer because we can be messy together.
