Living as a couple wasn't actually bad Emma could go to work and come to met an empty house and Jacob could arrive to meet Emma fast asleep they where like next door neighbors rather than a married couple they hardly saw themselves and every time they saw themselves they couldn't even talk either one of them was too busy or Just did not care enough to have proper conversation.
Outside they didn't have to act because people had a way of guessing things they did not Know about....
The more days they spent apart the more they were strangers.. and that was suppose to be good . This was what Emma wanted, but somehow she felt lonely . She wanted to blame it on her human need for companionship
