my (22nb, 22ftm[?]) friend mark (20m) lived in poland since he was 4. he speaks russian, polish, and english.
his English isn’t the best sometimes, and he has foreign accent. he is in love with a woman (24f) he wants to date, but she only speaks English and his family only speaks russian and polish too. he is almost always talking to family on call the whole time in russian, and it gets awkward because she also can’t understand it.
So he speaks russian and a bit of English. She speaks English and a bit of Russian. Sounds to me like they could get along and teach each other. So wait, he has regular phone calls with her? So the communication is working somehow? I’m even more confused. Do they even meet in person sometimes?
From what I understand of the situation I’m not sure you could say he’s in love. He can hardly communicate and only speaks to her on the phone. Sounds to me like nothing more than a crush, they can’t even talk properly. I feel like before he talks about being in love he should meet her more often and figure out ways to communicate.
