Brief Explanations
- The present continuous tense "are attending" is used as the action of attending law school is ongoing now (indicated by "nowadays").
- "Last month" indicates a past event, so the simple past tense "got" is correct.
- The action of not minding was in the past (when single), so "didn't mind" (simple past negative).
- "When I was single" - simple past for a past state.
- "Ever since" + past simple ("met") - the past simple is used for the action that started the period.
- "Ever since... have wanted" - present perfect is used to show an action that started in the past (when met Nicole) and continues to the present (wanting a less - dangerous job).
- "I understand" - simple present for a general statement of understanding.
20 - 21. "Have you had..." - present perfect is used with "yet" to ask if an action (having luck with counterfeiters) has occurred up to now.
