Both hate the bindings of relationship, so they meet with distance.
One side doesn't try to get too close, and the other doesn't want it either.
It looks like they respect each other, but really both want to be alone.
Even together, they stay each in their own world.
This distance can be comfortable, but sometimes it feels like the relationship ended before it began.
Where you clash
When RLOEN and RLUEN meet, both sink into deeper solitude.
There's no attempt to connect at all, so the relationship gradually stagnates.
Even if one side tries to open their heart, the other has already locked the door.
Even being together, there's a feeling of not facing each other.
Over time, “is this really a relationship?” grows.
Relationship playbook
The two are most comfortable when they don't intrude on each other.
Separate dinners, separate nights, separate dreams.
That separateness is what holds the relationship together.
“For these two to be together, someone has to reach out a hand first. Even short of full dependence, they sometimes need a moment of checking ‘are you here too?’ Not being alone can become comfort rather than solitude.”
