Their style of flirting would consist of inside jokes and play-fighting. The longer they are together, the more they conflict, not over questions of loyalty or values but over small things related to sensory issues. Their relationship is not as warm as it used to be. One expresses misgivings, and the other feels responsible to keep the peace. From an outsider’s perspective, they appear to be “living the life”, but they don’t seem satisfied in their relationship. That is only my impression, however.
Neither of them ever has heavy conflict with their ESI daughter, and her presence is mollifying to both of them. They just thought they lucked out with a good kid, but since their other daughter came along and is less easily appeased by their LIEness, they’re now realizing what it means to have a dual child.
Personally, Identical is one of the few intertype relations I would pursue for an intimate relationship. Even when tensions arise, there is understanding. A best friend-type relationship. But after seeing my cousin’s experience, I don’t know if it’s the best for marriage.
