Edit: @The Revolting Man I was replying to your comment but failed to read you said "effortlessly formed". That is interesting even in the secular world. I guess she picked a now all too common male who wants to please more than lead a woman?
This is probably the bottom line explaining why they are together. Since it was her idea, who is following who? And if the primary interest was sexual, how solid is that foundation? She didn't feel pressured, as many first wives do, to accept this....and since it is secular, it isn't permanent either.
They probably treat each other good....as long as they each want the other(s) to stay.
Right now they are happy, and one can hope they stay happy. The fact that they care for each other is nice, but I wonder beyond the personal aspect of their relationship in which they all think it's fun, how things would (or will) work if or when there are different or more stresses or responsibilities. For example children, or just life situations change. Say someone loses their job, gets injured, loses loved one(s) and has a hard time dealing with it.
When my guys work for lesbians it is sometimes painful how indecisive they can be, but watching some man who isn't joking when he calls his wife the boss is sometimes worse! With the women you think....they need a man....but with the man.....what is the solution? (Since most wouldn't watch or apply any lessons in McClintock
)
This world so needs MEN! That know they are MEN! ....to just do what MEN should do! Lead, example, decide, direct, correct, and take responsibility!
