In relationships, there are many very important qualities that one may look for when searching for a partner. He or she may prefer the individual to be tall and athletic, or maybe very charismatic and down-to-earth.

Campus life can be exciting and challenging for most people who start to live on campus for the first time, especially when one has to face the collisions of different cultures and beliefs.

The lovers meet in secluded places. Tonight, it is the little cafe on the Rue de La ____. They hide their fears from each other, just as they hide their faces from passers-by.
