Noob here, dont understand why my code does this..

When I run this program, on the surface everything seems fine. But when i type in multiple words, like 'hello there' it will do it twice. So if I space things each string (i guess) will generate its own little question and answer.. Sorry it's really hard for me to explain, but I'm sure you guys know what you're doing. :D
P.S This code is making fun of a close friend, I don't mean to offend. It seems pretty sloppy as well, sorry about that.

This will read just a single word at a time:
1
2
 
    string choice;
    cin >> choice;

If you want to input multiple words at one time, use getline
getline(cin, choice);
