Can you see your partner during lockdown ?

On gov website and BBC it says 'you don't need to socially distance from somebody you are in an established relationship with.'

Are people still seeing theirs, even if they are not in a support bubble ?

I have this huge feeling that we will soon be in full national lockdown again.

Of course they are.

You will get a small % who won’t but yes people are still seeings partners and having close contact.

Just like some people are still hooking up with fwb.

That's good to know. There's just conflicting information everywhere but if it still says it on the Gov website then hopefully it's the case. But yeah, I highly doubt most people will forego months of seeing their partner.

Wont stop me.

Good :) it's highly unreasonable to expect people to do so for months.

I am. We’re currently both in Tier 1 areas although different parts of the country. I might see him less if the Tiers change but realistically we’re both working from home, don’t really go to shops/ socialise with anyone that is out meeting loads of people so we’re pretty low risk.

RajaGemini · 28/10/2020 20:55

That's good :) yeah exactly, it's really low-risk.
I'm in Tier 3 and he's in 1, still meeting but i'm worried if they bring back the 'stay at home' that we won't be able to.

No, have not seen him since January due to Covid restrictions. Due to countries locking boarders, quarantine rules etc have not seen him since Jan. Hopefully see him in December.

Ah no way ! Keeping my fingers crossed for December then, you're obviously a very strong couple.
