I made a quick program as my first venture into c++ but it seems to be buggy. As far as i can see my code seems logical, but the endl; above firaddress seems to be interfeering. Can anyone help please?

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

string name;
cout << endl << "Please enter your first name" << endl << endl;
cin >> name;

string surname;
cout << endl << "Please enter your surname" << endl << endl;
cin >> surname;

cout << endl << "your  name is " << name << " " << surname << endl << endl;

string firaddress;
cout << "Please enter the first line of your address" << endl << endl;
getline (cin, firaddress);

string secaddress;
cout << "Please enter the second line of your address" << endl << endl;
getline (cin, secaddress);

string towaddress;
cout << "Please enter your town" << endl << endl;
getline (cin, towaddress);

string posaddress;
cout << "Please enter your postcode" << endl << endl;
getline (cin, posaddress);

cout << endl << endl << "Your address is..." << endl << endl << firaddress << 
endl << secaddress << endl << towaddress << endl << posaddress<< endl << endl;

system("pause");

/*cin.get(); is an alternative, doesnt work with 
the above function as intended, program auto closes*/

}

Try this:

string name;
cout << endl << "Please enter your first name" << endl << endl;
cin >> name; cin.ignore();

string surname;
cout << endl << "Please enter your surname" << endl << endl;
cin >> surname; cin.ignore();
