Minted and marvelous
A girl I knew at university, Y, got together with some guy she met in the union one night, which blossomed into a full on relationship. E was very posh and had a good back story. Grew up in a big Chelsea town-house but sent to finish school in the States due to a blossoming coke habit. They were a fairly volatile (knives brought out during fights, doors kicked off their hinges) couple, but generally fairly amusing

2 years later we’ve finished uni and a group of us all move into a big house in North London and Ed invites us to spend a couple of weeks in the summer at the family’s house in Tampa. It all falls through after a couple of people had bought flights, so noone’s very amused. After another year together, Y is getting annoyed that she still hasn’t met his family, a big row ensues and they split up. Then the full story comes out. E met Y on a night out with his mates where their aim was to make up a bullshit identity for themselves and have a one night stand. He kept it up for three years. THREE SODDING YEARS. He’s from a fairly normal 3 bed semi in Bedford and went to the local comp. No house in Chelsea, no schooling in Florida and no house there either. Should have been fairly obvious as he drove a clapped out 10 year old Nissan Micra which generally carried all of his worldly possessions.

Incidentally, Y ended up trying to convince people that she was going blind. Which also turned out to be bollocks so they really were made for each other.

E+Y & Ed and... why not use pretend names which have more meaning than E = mc2?
But three years!
