It will be 2 years in April that dr. blue and I decided to preserve our marriage by living in two seperate homes. We like to tell people that we have a 6500 sq. ft. home with a 4 mile breezeway.

We are happily monogamous and the best of friends. Our homes are as different as our personalities. We both love our relationship this way and are not likely to change it.

My best-friend and her husband have been married for about two years, and she just moved out of their home and got her own apartment. She told me she want's to be an Independent Woman. As far as I know, everything's working out great.

This is a wonderful alternative to divorce, or living in a unhappy household. I'm glad thing's are working out for you.
 
Sir Anthony Hopkins does it.

I think he lives in London and his honey lives in Montana.

I thought it was weird, but if it keeps the relationship good it works. Plus, it keeps you good at phone sex! :)
 
I know a couple that has been married for about 40 years and they've spent the last 20 years living apart. They couldn't be happier.

At one point, my husband I were living apart, and we got along better than ever.
 
If only.....

he did live away we would be happy and I am married 23 yrs......lol :(

I am not married, but would likely feel more comfortable with the idea of marriage with an arrangement such as yours.

I always thought Minnie and Mickey Mouse were the "perfect" couple (although I do NOT think of them as married). They seem to be a loving couple yet have separate residences (in the same neighborhood), and they've been "at it" for quite a while now!

I am a one man woman, and although my man is too far away, I wouldn't mind living down the road from him!:D

Four years ago my wife and I decided to buy the apartment next to the one we lived in. The idea was to rent it out for extra income.

You can guess what happened. My wife liked the idea of giving herself (and me) more personal space and moved in as my neighbour.

We both wish we'd done it years ago. Our marriage has improved tremendously. We no longer see each other as marrieds, but more as lovers.

I'm glad we're not the only ones, and I have read that this practice is becoming more popular.

I wish we had two different houses to live in. For me, miles apart would be better.;) ;)
