Are people's marriages/relationships of any kind suffering due to this??

Just that really.. it's a testing time for everyone

We have been locked down for 7 days now. Judging by whatsapps with friends, this shows up any cracks in your relationship really fast. Not in that position myself, luckily.
You have nothing left but your home and family so you had better like them.
Awful for people in abusive relationships.

My partner currently lives 200 miles away for work training. We were supposed to see each other tomorrow but now who knows when we can

I'm nervous. DP is terrible at staying in. Even if he works from home one day then he has to go out in the evening. Even if it's with the dog or strolling around big Tesco. He's not taking it seriously either. I haven't got much patience.

It's an anxious time for me as myself and DH were having conversations before Coronavirus erupted around how tense our marriage is at the moment and that we are in trouble as a couple. We have a toddler as well so are very aware that weeks cooped up with them are likely to add to stress. We have openly recognised this will be stressful at times and both said we will try and be compassionate towards eachother / see this as an opportunity to work on us... But my fear is definitely that the next few months will either make or break us. 😕

I'm a single parent but my relationship with some of the people I know has improved lately. I have one enemy, who I seem to have a better understanding of now. I've also had more contact with friends and family than I have in years. I think there are some positives right now.

I’m in a long distance relationship and my DP is in another country. He was meant to visit last weekend for 5 days but decided not to travel (sensibly) now we don’t know when we will see each other again. Talking and texting every day
