The question is... do we not get together until we have a vaccine for the virus? For 18 months? My partner seems to feel that way, and so do a lot of people in the dating arena.
My live-in partner accepts that whatever we have (flus and colds included) we end up sharing. My partner that lives an hour away felt that way until this coronavirus reared its head. He no longer agrees. If I understand correctly, to him, since we're not in the same household, we have to practice social distancing with one another. But that doesn't make sense to me.
I don't think there should be a great difference in how he and I interact because of this pandemic. With our coworkers, yes. Walking down the street with strangers, yes. In stores, yes. We have to be careful and try to protect one another. But within any family unit, or any living unit, like roommates, don't you stay together... unless and until you know 1 person has the virus and then they self-quarantine? Or else you self-quarantine as a group? Isn't that reasonable?
You don't kick your out. You don't make your spouse get a separate house. You and your roommates don't each move out into 1 BR apartments to make sure you don't get the virus. So why should he and I have to stay separate?
What do you all think?
