Je me suis descendu de l'autobus sans dire un seule mot. That really happened, but the situation could have ended differently: you see your significant other, and the passion is still strong; and you pick up where you left off. You see your significant other, but the passion has died, and you never see each other again for a long time. You see your significant other, but only one person is interested; it is unrequited love. You find out that your first love has died. That would change the mood of Frenchpod101.com , at least until the end of the dialogue, as Frenchpod101.com says.

My teacher said the change was in the person, not in the environment or surrounding. I guess my friend and I changed, not the place where I lived.

If there were any rumors about us, it was probably the truth. We graduated and went our separate ways. We didn't see each other anymore. I have lived in the same house and have caught the same bus all of these years. Then one day on the bus we see each other after 20 years, but something is different. What does the French idiom «Plus c'est la même chose, plus ça change» mean? My friend and I met when we were 15 years old. If there were any rumors about us, it was probably the truth.
