My husband and I often read together side by side. The silence and the reading are welcome and we enjoy doing that together- along w doing everything else together! I know we REALLY KNOW each other and we can communicate w a sigh or a yawn. We just know what the other wants or needs as well. So I

don’t blame you one bit for wanting REAL connection. There is nothing like it, Jia! 💕

I had this until recently. But even than it can still not work out. I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
