Are there any married couples that live under the same roof but lead seperate lives?

Around which time did you start driffting apart?Are there any married couples that live under the same roof but lead seperate lives?
LOL, with half of all marriages getting divorced i think it is pretty common to live with an emotional stranger.





I think people should get to know each other and live together for a while before deciding to marry.





I believe the drifting occurs around year 3, when the ';fuzzy'; love feeling starts to fade away and reality sets in.Are there any married couples that live under the same roof but lead seperate lives?
Yes, most of us...and we come together in the evening hours when time is right for the couples time of day. So to speak. Often married couples have different lives during the day, but that doesn't mean separate all. Both have to work on the marriage to keep the fire lit and keep the flame going. Most of the time it is the wife that creates the mood for an escape of the day's doldrum duties. Either set aside some time together, by candlelit bath for 2, or a walk in the park and hold hands and remember what brought the 2 of you together. Talk about the places that remind you both of happier times. Usually that is all it takes to rekindle good feelings. Don't give up the ship, and don't shoot yourself in the foot either. Be patient with each other, and not judgemental. Good Luck
in about year 3 of 15.





Lack of communication, stemming from both of us having been abused emotionally as children, leading to conflict avoidance rather than conflict resolution.





A healthy couple wants to be together and do the same things together; but also has some quality alone-time too.
yeah i can feel it because we had a baby in jan and I've been busy looking after her more than looking after marriage but we've maintained caring for each other and i'm starting to feel more like myself again now. it's funny that you can feel it happening and it's all so unspoken though even though we never meant to drift this way. We don't want to be ships in the night - i fell in love with this person, completely, %26amp; I know having a baby can do this, but I know the time's right for us both to have our own dates again without our princess!
My parents have been like that for as long as I can remember. They have separate bedrooms, have different friends and they barely spend any time together.
Been married 7years in aug. started drifting apart 3years ago and the gap just keeps getting wider. Been together march was 11 years 2 beautiful girls. Keep it movin girl/guy life's too short!
Are there any that don't?





We drifted apart when gaming became more important than real life.
Sounds like my in-laws! I think it is very sad. Hubby said that it started in the late 1970's.
i thought that's what being married was all about.
