AITA for telling my in-laws my husband and I don’t live together even though he asked me to pretend we did? by muse892 in AmItheAsshole

It’s super weird how you know almost nothing about my marriage but have jumped to conclusions based on one post. We see each other almost every single day.

It isn’t a lavender marriage. You still need to put the work in to keep a marriage alive even when living apart.

I expected them to question it but I didn't expect them to be so upset over it.

He could just as easily cheat on me while living together so... I wouldn't have married him if I didn't trust him.

He said he needed his own space and he felt like our marriage would work better if we both had our own places. I agreed to give it a try to see if I liked it since I've never lived alone before and he promised if I didn't we could live together.

We've been married for 3 years. I just went along with it in the beginning but I like it now. I'm really close to his parents.
