One would describe him as the Espresso. Dark, serious, bitter, straight to the point. Would wake you up. Like literally. Cuz he'll scream at you whenever you make even the simplest mistake. 
The other one however, is calm, sweet, like the milk. That if heated at the right temperature, it's a perfect substitute for someone's embrace just with one sip.
An espresso might be strong, bitter, but with the right amount of milk, you can make it taste as decadent as chocolate but still with a hint of bitterness to wake you up from time to time. Add a little bit of vanilla and caramel and you'll be able to taste pure perfection.
A caramel macchiato, thats what this relationship is. 
Someone as strong as the espresso meets someone as calming as the warm milk. A perfect combination indeed. But just like the perfect caramel macchiato, it's not all sweet. Obstacles and challenges will occur like it's bitter side coming from the dark espresso. 
Join me, to see how this couple tackles all the bumbs and imperfections in their relationship. Get some coffee and dessert, as this ride is a quite long one.
