What do people do in relationships (especially long term relationships)? I know there’s “sex stuff”, but what else do you do?

I’ve lived with my fiancé for the last 3-4 years, it’s honestly just like a sleepover with your best friend every day, but you’re also roommates in a functioning household. We game, watch shows/movies together, play board games, cook, etc. and still go to work and whatnot. We also spend a lot of time with our friends and host get togethers. Today, we’re going to get AYCE sushi and binging movies after

Of course! I will say though a lot of people don’t actually seem to like their partners as much as we like each other, as in enjoying hanging out and sharing hobbies. Luckily I cannot relate. We have our own preferences like movie genres the other doesn’t especially like, for example I love horror and he does not, so we do things on our own, but for the most part we spend all our free time together :)

So you guys are able to have your own “alone time” right, without the other person being jealous or insecure?

Absolutely. We’ll hang out with our friends one-on-one or without each other pretty often, or sometimes we aren’t on the same page about what we want to do on our off days so we’ll play our own games or do whatever in the same room. I think we’d go crazy spending every single moment together lol
