Lesson 42: Advanced English Speaking / Idioms - Phrasal verbs

It was up in the air when he last spoke to his fiance about him moving to Chicago. John would love to tie the knot this summer and move in with his future wife. But since he just started his role as Sr. Software Engineer with Verizon, he didn’t want to leave before completing his first year with them. On the other hand, even though his fiance was sitting on the fence and tried not to put pressure on him if he puts off their wedding again, things will definitely be unstable between them. She was so considerate and helpful in the past years. She has been taught that a partner is not an enemy. For that reason, she always focuses on finding a common ground that suits both of them. But as a rule of thumb, John must not take her for granted. He must at least discuss the matter with her and let her express her concerns. Not just that, he must deal with her concerns and sort things out in any way that would really satisfy his fiance's needs.
