Me and my wife have had two properties for the longest. She has her place and I have had mine. It’s been an awesome relationship move.

When we lived together we were always underneath each other. It was sweet like young lovers do. We spent so much together that we started having issues.

Like all couples when we lived together we start having deep conversations about life.

Those deep conversations lead us to get a little frustrated with each other. We have deep insight on life. She is a great thinker, deep and insightful.

I just can’t handle her awesomeness. Like I find myself ignoring my work, my health, and my hobbies.

I am engulfed in her essence and I love it. I love it so much I tends to annoy her. I like do some kind of worshipping routine that drives her cray cray.

So, it is time for me to go, and oh well. I like can’t stay there and we both work remotely. I needed my own space if not I’d probably overdose off her.

So, I made the decision to find a place of my own. Somewhere where I could work and do some self-reflection.

Our relationship has never been better. Our marriage is full of good memories and celebrations. We are still a married couple, we just live apart.

I feel like it a better bet that we live apart. We all need time to ourselves. That alone time helps nurture that love you have for one another.

Whenever I want I come over and spend time with her. I smoke, and drink, and when I am done I go to her spot to have our deep conversations. We spending time in our own respectable dwellings help us appreciate each even more.

Then we part ways and it’s off to the work. I spend time engaging in my craft and she does the awesome work she does.

We don’t have to live together to love each other. The love is there and it isn’t going anywhere. I’m going home to my music, writing, and personal space.

They say they absence makes the heart grow fonder. Not being around 24/7 gives me time to miss her instead of indulging in her.

Yes after a while we both get tired of the coo cooing, the hug and cuddle are great but they don’t pay the bills. In there is too much room for conflict living together.

I suggest living apart to all my married friends. Like this isn’t 1920, when you couldn’t be black after dark. Living apart is the new modern marriage wave.
