CarmenDane Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I opened a profile for my girlfriend and myself as her English is not so good and we wanted a forum where we both can be part of a greater community but also share and know what is posted between us. No secrets sort of speak. I see no option for couple in the sign up. Are we better off to make separate profiles? My GF will rarely post though. Maybe comment now and then. Are there other couple profiles? Link to post Share on other sites

glows Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I have seen this before elsewhere. If your girlfriend wants to differentiate herself while using the account, she can sign off as Carmen on a post in a thread. Otherwise, we'll assume it's Dane speaking. Thanks for letting us know.

Are there other couple profiles? Why not chose a forum where the language is one that both of you speak? Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if they have couple profiles but it could be a fun way to communicate and learn or hone languages. Edited October 1, 2021 by Wiseman2 Link to post Share on other sites
Author CarmenDane Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) She has taken some English classes in her home city of San Jose and she did well in them. I think her writing skills is much better then she feels. She has more problems speaking English. She likes to use Duolingo in a pinch. I heard good things about Babble. Thanks for the tip. I have learned some Spanish from "Pimsleur approach". I feel is a very good program. I learn more each time a go to Costa Rica too, but its difficult.
