I enjoyed this take on relationships. My choice would be like the couple who are still together yet live apart.

[@emesfion]

Agreed!

[@charmainepriestman915]

Me too 😂

[@Fotina18]

That's my dream .

[@aurora6920]

I would actually miss my partner, but I totally get most people would be happier living separately. I think I'm just lucky I have a lot in common and enjoy watching the same TV shows etc

[@charmainepriestman915]

It takes all types to make a world as long as you are happy and dont hurt anyone make the choice that works for you❤

[@FollyWollyDoodle]

I’ve been with my partner for 12 years and we don’t live together, we live down the road from each other. We do everything that “normal “ couples do, we cook together, spend evenings and weekends and holidays together but we have our own hobbies and interests too. After coming out of difficult marriages, we both value our own space and doing our own thing but love the time we have together. It keeps our relationship fresh and exciting, we don’t argue and we have plenty to talk about! We talk about getting married but don’t plan to move in together as yet. ❤

[@dawnatkinson7704]

Sounds like you are just dating and there is a little trust. I've been through a crappy marriage too but the relationship I have now (celebrating 19th year in February) is so much better because as you said you learn from your mistakes. But living separately doesn't sound very healthy. Our relationship is so much better and we improved on our past relationships.

[@amazonionavalon8252]

Sounds ideal to me and I'm sure a therapist would praise it for being healthy. It's also really evolved ❤

[@FollyWollyDoodle]

@@dawnatkinson7704 definitely not just dating! We have shared finances and own both our houses, with both our names on the deeds to both. We our each others next of kin, spend nights at each others houses and are involved in each others families lives, including our respective children (5 of them). There is total trust on both sides and will at some point get married but we also like to have our own space. I don’t think you can really say that my relationship lacks trust or is some way unhealthy or not up to your personal values, when you don’t know me. Everyone is different and this is how we are happy. I’m glad you feel you have improved on your past relationship mistakes but so have I and I have found my soulmate. ❤️

Seeing Anne swiping on Tinder was interesting 😅

[@debmccudden242]

I would never be able to trust Malcolm again

[@baxterbunch]

6 years of lying to her every day is a huge deal. Not saying it can’t work but 6 years is a huge betrayal, a one off is bad enough imagine a 6 year relationship behind your back…

[@Kadianblog]

So the lady is angry at the women but not her own husband for cheating on her. Women are fascinating sometimes

[@kundaimiedzok]

So so strange !!

[@T_Amara257]

I can totally understand the living apart. Watch what you want, sleep nicely, read book in bed with light on until late… good idea

[@amandapittar9398]

As my granny said “ there’s nowt so queer as folk” … every relationship is different. Every love is different. Wegan seemed sweet and well bonded. I worry that if something happened, an outside force, the other would be left bereft and isolated. The polyamorous couple are just greedy. They don’t seem particularly happy or content.

[@jeanniecampbell1374]

a good cross section of couples ..and I agree no matter how different its what suits each couple that matters ..I am just a dreamer and just have fantasies about nice men I just meet and its feels safer to just keep those fantasies in my head I guess ..haha

[@trionaandronike2461]

I’m a lat. it works for us.

[@FollyWollyDoodle]

Me too. 12 years and very happy 😊

[@emesfion]

My ex and I were codependent. For all of the love, there was an equal amount of dysfunction. I don't recommend it as a relationship style.

[@cisburns.fabideas614]

Emily didn't seem comfortable in her sexuality, neither did the guys....

[@pamelajefferies3197]

Cheating husband started sweating when the interviewer started asking questions lol. The fighting will start again ! The wife got her chance to pay him back publicly! lol

[@emesfion]

The interviewer is Anne Widdocombe. She's an interesting one

[@pamelajefferies3197]

@ I quite enjoyed her . I would think that is nothing that Embarrass her.

[@melaniekate3555]

​@@emesfionAnne Robinson! Big difference, Anne Widdecombe is a fierce, religious,ex tory minister.Anne Robinson is the interesting one!

[@emesfion]

@@melaniekate3555 My mistake! I mixed up their last names in my head. Thanks!

[@FollyWollyDoodle]

@@emesfionAnne Robinson! 😂

[@kimsherlock8969]

X ❤😊🎉

[@MarniTurboHoarder]

I love living co-dependently with my man, I absolutely adore him, but luckily he’s the same, he can’t even shower by himself because I don’t like being alone, he loves being washed and dried haha 🎉 I dunno if it’s because there’s 15 years between us or what, I just feel like he was just made for me ❤

[@MarniTurboHoarder]

I love sleeping next to him, I couldn’t live without him, I wouldn’t be able to feel like he wasn’t punishing me by being away from me. Amazing, I would never have even thought living separately but married was even a thing

[@Julia-bj7bq]

Why brits only thinks about sex and drugs 😂
