"I didn’t have much chat, I was quite quiet. But it was all about Blackberry messenger back then. I started messaging and talking and we got to know each other," he was quoted as saying by Daily Mail.
"Tamara stayed the first night but was at university in London. She would come up every weekend but, that apart, I was by myself,” Gomez added.

Hopefully, Liverpool's title challenge and unbeaten run in the English topflight will still be intact by the time Gomez returns to action, with Saturday's 5-1 win over Arsenal leaving them nine points clear at the top of the log.
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously had reported that Liverpool defeated Arsenal 5-1 on Saturday, December 29, at Anfield to consolidate their Premier League ambition.
It was the visitors that got the early shout out of nowhere as Ainsley Maitland-Niles was on hand to tap-in an Alex Iwobi's cross in the 11th minute to make it 1-0.
The lead did not last long as three minutes later a lose ball between Arsenal defenders fell kindly to Roberto Frimino who slotted home the equalizer.
The Brazilian put the Reds in the lead for the first time in the match in the 16th minute as he dribbled past three Gunners defenders to score a beautiful solo effort to make it 2-1.
Sadio Mane made it 3-1 in the 32nd minute as he was on hand to blast home a Mohamed Salah's fine assist. Then it was the turn of Salah to register his name on the score sheet as he was awarded what looked like a soft penalty and as he made it 4-1 right on the stroke of half time. Firmino scored from the spot in the second half to get his hattrick and Liverpool's fifth on the night.
