Hi Inessa. Concerning your friend who married that Englishman, a few things got wrong. Surely, she could not know the climate and house-heating issues before she moved there. So in that case, the guy is not a gentleman (what we tend to see in Britons). BUT, she must have known that he had 6 dogs (!) before she married him. I would never-ever get in a close relationship with a woman who can't live without dogs, cats etc. I just don't want free running animals in the apartment/house where I live. So, that could have been a clear red-flag for her. I mean 6 dogs aren't one... And for the water taps, that is ridiculous (my opinion), just like that washer story from Steven. I can't understand, that people make enormous efforts to come together, visas, money issues, language barriers, cultural shocks, and in the end it comes up to a water-tap???
