Has lockdown taught you anything new about your relationship?

Question

Yes life is too short, with agreement, start tellin each other what about us both being honest, not worried that if you tell him that sex with each other is so great, but tell each other your sexual fantasies, like that you do get wet hot and flushed when u dream fantasize about other guys cuming on to her, but she responds to other guys, with your hubby watching, protecting , and enjoying watching as stranger used you, that is where trust comes in, if you both enjoyed it, do sexual fun again, sexual fun n more comes with more fun but never hide anything sex wise with him, like you had sex with man when he was not there, as if he finds out from other person, he will be thinking how many , and how long, so jealous starts, and the problem starts, when I met my 17year wife, I was 35, we had both been hurt badly, so we told each other , no flirt, no going behind each others back, as cheating was how we were so hurt, that if each other was being flirty, getting sexually turned on, and really would like a strange one night shag, ask the other about if he would like to cum to yours, letting partner know, and if its OK, and telling stranger that hubby will be there in 3sum fun, that way your both being sexually enjoying , me and younger wife been together 20years now with little son 12, still enjoyin watching strangers with wife, so being in lockdown situation gives time to appreciate, and loving each other more x

Yes, two things: - bad moments either make or destroy relationship - people are capable of everything once they get desperate enough and give up their dignity

I’ve been apart from my partner for 18 weeks now... we’ve only been officially together since October last year... so very new.
I used to miss him as soon as he left... and felt needy and insecure if I didn’t see him at least twice a week.
18 weeks later and FaceTime chats and talking at least 3-5 hours a day has made a bond I can’t describe... so much so that I’m scared to see him person!
I’ve hated lockdown for not being able to see people. But I have accepted it and everyone is struggling.. and I’m so happy to have this ability to speak to my partner in a way I never would have before! It’s given me a realisation that a relationship is based on being together physically... perhaps holding hands at the cinema.. or just lying in a bed next to each other and watching a movie...
yet I’ve realised that whilst I would have the physical... i muah prefer the mental! And the chats we’ve been able to have would never have happened!
I’m so sad that this pandemic has happened and I’m so sad that every day we wait to hear how m at have died! It’s a scary world. This thing is capable of wiping out the human race! Yet we are all in it together and I feel connected like never before

Not really. Been together a long time.
But 24/7 together minus stress is far better than 24/7 with stress.
We're fine. Better than many, right now. But that's life. Sometimes you're in the wave cresting with everyone else, sometimes you're out of it and on your own current, or cast out at sea. But I've been thinking about stress lately, and I remind myself that any living creature under duress will behave differently. I just find it somewhat ironic that right now this is the most stressful time a lot of people have experienced in a long time. Not for me and my partner. We actually have more peace.

joe_schmidt · Answer

Yes, while I was on the fence about this before, during the pandemic I saw/heard MANY couples get a divorce because they realized they couldn't be in the same area with their spouse all day, every day.

However, my girlfriend and I grew closer than we ever have before, so by the end of the year I'm proposing to her.

If we can grow closer during a global pandemic, I feel we can overcome any obstacles that may come our way.

BeenThereLovedIt · Answer

It's made me realize how deep our communication issues have become over the years. We pretty much avoid any conversation that isn't relevant to the household or daily lives, but we both avoid conversations about our problems, communication being the most obvious. We've done this for years, both of us learned to avoid fighting and disagreement by not triggering the other.

It somehow amazingly works for us, but I recognize that it isn't healthy. The lockdown has made all of this much more visible to me, but seems no more addressable than before.

wonderlandalice89 · Answer

Absolutely. My boyfriend moved in with me right before the lockdown happened and I was so scared at first. As I was diagnosed as clinically depressed, I was worried that my relationship would get tarnished by my constant changes in moods. However, it has only made my relationship stronger because he's shown me that he is willing to work with me through anything, both good and bad. Seem as though the more time passes, the stronger our bond is which has made me very grateful for the man that I'm with.

Jaximus-Lion · Answer

People in general don't communicate well, not even with their partners and when you force them to be locked in together for so long time, of course they will start arguing and fighting because they never had the chance to express their selves enough to each other. Me and my wife can be in lock down for a year and nothing will happen. This got all out the last 3-4 months and people are shocked how much they lack in communication and understanding each other. Sad, it hurts, and it's true.

skrewd · Answer

all it's taught me, is that I want to be in more and more than ever now. cuz I didn't have one in the whole time. I feel like I've gotten older even during lockdown I feel much older now than I did before. I feel that time is of the essence and I need to do something about it cuz I've made it I'm not afraid, I'm just lonely. and I want somebody.

dracodragon · Answer

It hasn't taught me a great lot, but it has taught me, that my wife works harder than I thought she did. From working a job outside of the home to, taking care of the kids, making dinner and so forth. I knew she worked hard, but to see how much she did, makes me even more surprised. As soon as more salon's and spas open, I'm going to do my best to take care of the children and allow her to go out and pamper herself.

Prof_Don · Answer

I learned my girlfriend is less of an introvert than I thought! She’s having a hard time dealing with not being able to go places.

We live in southern California so there is a lot or public places and entertainment venues, so it hits us as a population especially hard to not be able to “go out and do stuff”

soleil2666 · Answer

Well, yes - that it's ok for it to be just electronic - and that you can figure out someone is flaking on you and fake even without seeing them in person. So it was great to have the lockdown as an excuse (the said two-faced person is married - pretends to me she wants to leave, pretends to her other man I am pestering her).

Although I am single, I will say that this lockdown has basically taught me that either I am unfit for a relationship because I suck at talking to women over dating apps or I just became used to being a recluse.
