Is this a homework exercise?

Welcome to the forums, Jordan. :hi:

The exercise itself is FULL of errors. Did you not type it in correctly, or were those errors part of the original text? If they were part of the original text, throw away this book and buy a new one.

Jordan, you have made so many mistakes in copying over the original text that it's hard to help you.

Are you stuyding on your own, without a teacher?

When you submitted your answers on that site, what did it say? I didn't finisht the module since the "fill in the blank" section that followed seemed pointless. I had no idea what words they were looking for. So I cannot see how they provide feedback.

You copied it incorrectly.

I _____have living____ (live) alone since then.

That answer is wrong. "When I last haven't been" is also wrong, but that's not the text.

...when i last saw her. We hadn't been friends for long.
