Wasn’t going to weigh in on this discourse bc I think it’s a bit silly but since it’s still a topic of conversation and concern:
All Miller said (in an admittedly awkward and not very tactful way): Robert and Aaron’s relationship is underpinned by a strong friendship and not solely on sex (which can be a stereotype of queer male relationships).
This is different from couples like Coira whose relationship is largely underpinned by sex and who constantly cheat on each other as a result.
This basis of friendship means they don’t need to be constantly physical with each other to show they are still in love.
Miller was probably just trying to explain the lack of affection so far this year. And while there are real issues with the lack of warmth and general affection between them as of late (and I do think sex underpins far more of their relationship than he suggested) his comments do not suggest or imply that they will never kiss again or that they will high-five at the alter if /when they get married again.
Just to keep things in perspective. Keep demanding improvements to the show overall by those in charge. That’s how we get more SSW16 and less whatever 2026 has been. Not by reading too much into off-the-cuff comments actors tend to make when they’re not thinking.
