“Priorities and needs may have shifted as things have opened up, and the demands on our time have changed,” she says. “While some couples can turn towards one another and navigate this together, for others this adjustment may lead to relationship difficulties. People are also facing new types of anxiety and stressors, such as returning to socialising or going back to the office. This can affect an individual, and the ways that partners support each other will determine how well they adapt and if they continue to stay together.”
