An interesting article in Vogue that talks about a specific couple and couples in general. Here are some excerpts:
Both children of divorce, Megan and Marty committed to monogamy, vowing—especially after their children were born—that their marriage would last forever.
However ironically, it was that pledge that began cracking the long-closed door of their union. By 2018, Marty started to notice, as he told Megan, “your heart is off.” Determined to reawaken his wife’s deadened spirit, Marty suggested splashes of novelty.
Though a pandemic might seem inimical to meeting new partners (social distancing and swinging hardly mix), Feeld—an app catering to open relationships, founded in 2014—has “bloomed” during COVID, according to its CEO, Ana Kirova."
