Check out this quirkytogether couple profiled in the New York Times:”AT many weddings, the officiant talks about how a husband and wife should be like two pillars on a porch: separate but together. In their marriage, Jennifer Belle, a novelist, and Andrew Krents, an entertainment lawyer, take the separation part to the extreme. It is almost as if they are afraid of spending too much time together.
“Familiarity breeds contempt,” Mr. Krents said.”
What do you think? Does their relationship sound ideal, realistic, or extreme?
Vanessa says:
I think they may have taken it a bit too far. Before you get married you should actually WANT to spend time with each other and make any necessary sacrifices to do so…even putting down the BlackBerry.

My wife and I have been married for 28 years, In my line of work I transfer often This doesn’t deter from; collage, law school, or help with niece’s children, etc.. We each enjoy our time alone and we each have our own priorities. Of course after 28 years we still enjoy being together, which usually comes out to six months a year.
We have a strange and unique relationship, of course according to her I’m strange and she’s unique.
