Struggles of Identity and Togetherness

A central theme of the episode is the struggle between individual identity and the shared identity within the marriage. Both partners reflect on how their responsibilities have led to a feeling of isolation despite being together for 16 years. They have grown accustomed to prioritizing family duties over personal needs, resulting in a loss of connection with each other as individuals. This dynamic leaves them feeling alone in their marriage, where both partners express desires for deeper connection and intimacy, yet feel trapped by their current patterns.
