Model Chiderah Sunny, 25, is straight, while her wife, writer Deidre Olsen, 30, is gay.They don’t have sex and are free to date other people.The couple say they are soulmates who want to challenge the notion that true love is only for romantic partners.
Here, they tell their story to inspire others... Chiderah says: I’m a morning person, up at 5am, Deidre is not. I’ll bounce in wanting to discuss something.
She’ll be like, “Leave me!” Being married to your soulmate doesn’t mean you don’t argue. But two minutes later it’s, “I’m sorry, I love you.” With romantic partners, arguments can drag on for weeks.
We share a bank account but not a bedroom. We have never had sex and never will, that is not what our relationship is about.
