It is difficult to say, but I believe we are getting along well. We will have been together for 20 months in December. We are looking forward to cerebrate Christmas with a whole cake.

自然な表現

It is difficult to say, but I believe we are getting along well. This December it will be 20 months since we started dating. We are looking forward to celebrating Christmas with a  cake.

1 this sentence is too formal
2 looking forward to+ing
3 what is 'whole cake'? ^ ^
Okay, that sounds lovely. What kind of cake flavor will you have? Also, what do you like most about her?

Thank you for following me. I am sorry not saying about the distinction of sex. He loves chocolate flavor, so I will reserve one at supermarket. We are also selfish a little, but we can be cordial with each other. I love him because he is always thinking about happiness both of us.

自然な表現

Thank you for following me. I am sorry that I didn't mention the gender. He loves chocolate flavor, so I will reserve one at supermarket. We are also selfish a little, but we can be cordial with each other. I love him because he  always thinks about happiness for both of us.

1 correct way: sorry (that) I didn't..
2 the+sth specific; 'gender' is another way
3 always+Present Continuous is used when sth annoys you (example: He is always coming late!)
4 a preposition is missing
Okay, he must be a considerate person. How did you first meet him? I can see you are enjoying the relationship.

I had met him online at first. We had been talking with messages only until tried blind date. In my younger days, I had made up my mind to choose boyfriend because of their fine looks. I had been break up with them sooner or later due to less communication finally. To avoid that, I decided not to judge by appearance, but to look for the person who received my feelings.

自然な表現

I had met him online at first. We had been talking with messages only until we went on a blind date. In my younger days, I had made up my mind to choose boyfriend because of their fine looks. I used to break up with them sooner or later because we eventually started to drift apart. To avoid that, I decided not to judge by appearance, but to look for the person who could return my feelings.

1 'try a date' doesn't fit here
2 a/an+singular countable noun we mention for the first time
3 we can't say 'had been break up' (Past Perfect Continuous: had been breaking up, but it is used with a long process before sth else in the past)
4 'finally' emphasizes that we're happy it happened
5 we can't say 'less communication'
6 'return' fits the meaning
Okay, I understand. Were you able to relate well even on your first date? Also, do you have many things in common with him?

In the truth, his first impression was strange. But he has been honesty and charming as a person. Our dates are to share house chores, relax in cafes, sometime going to training gyms. Special date that we plan is to travel for Kanazawa that was residency of his courage.

To tell the truth, his first impression was strange. However, he is honest and charming as a person. Our dates are to share house chores, relax in cafes, sometime go to training gyms. A special date that we plan is to travel to Kanazawa that was the place he lived as a college student.

1 correct phrase
2 we don't usually start a sentence with 'but' (too informal)
3 for personal qualities we use Present Simple
4 honesty-noun, honest-adj
5 matching verb forms (share, relax, go)
6 the+sth specific
7 did you mean 'college'?
I'm glad you are now getting used to each other. I know first dates can be awkward. What kind of work does he do?

He works at a general hospital as a surgeon. He handles many patients and operations. I respect him and his efforts for the job.

自然な表現
