Nicole added that the fact that they were in their early twenties was also to blame, as they “didn’t know how to communicate with each other,” which meant that “if [they] heard something, [they] would assume [it was true].
“We didn’t have the communication skills we have now to manage check-ins, which is so important.”

‘I think it really helped me [with] communicate at this stage of my life.
“And I think, like all relationships, it’s so important to have check-ins and be honest and real and, you know, tender with the people you love most.”
