Then, in the summer of ’89 Tom suddenly asked Janet to go on a date with him. Janet was surprised because Tom had never even tried to flirt with her before, but finally she accepted. After a year of dating, Janet asked Tom to marry her; she felt that the relationship was serious and that it was time they lived together. But after a month of constantly arguing about the housework and money, the relationship finally came to an end. Eventually they became friends again, but sadly they were never as close as before. - GENITIVE CASE http://www.polseguera.org/advanced_english_grammar/the_genitive_case.php https://aliciateacher2.wordpress.com/grammar/saxon-genitive-s/ - SUBJECT + TO BE + ADJECTIVE + TO INFINITIVE // ADJECTIVE + TO INFINITIVE + OBJECT
