Kada je bila na prvoj godini fakulteta, Marija još uvek nije imala dečka. Prvo se zaljubila u Gorana, ali on nije osećao isto, tako da među njima ničeg nije bilo. Marija se veoma dopala Marku, drugu iz razreda, ali bila je ravnodušna. Posle toga upoznala je Ivana i započeli su vezu. To je bilo zanimljivo, ali trajalo je samo nekoliko meseci. Dugu vezu imala je tek nekoliko godina kasnije, sa Bojanom, kolegom sa fakulteta.
