Our Take On Joan & Chock Continuing Their Long-Distance Relationship
Joan & Chock Should Do Whatever They’re Comfortable With
While some fans have viewed Joan and Chock’s long-distance relationship as a red flag, I think that they should continue to do whatever makes them comfortable as a couple. After their whirlwindGolden Bacheloretteromance,they needed to take time to really get to know each other. As older people with obligations to their families, friends, homes, and jobs, they certainly weren’t going to be able to drop everything in their lives so quickly and move in together somewhere. Their long-distance relationship gives them the best of both worlds.
I believe thatJoan and Chock’s relationshipwill last because they’re navigating it on their own terms. Whether they get married or not,they’ll probably stay together for the long-haul because they seem to be very much in love, and they really enjoy each other’s company. I adored Joan and Chock’s love story duringThe Golden Bachelorette, and I look forward to watching their relationship continue to grow.
