Yep, it feels much more like a realistic divorce/separation for these reasons.

Yet Marriage story is about people who have quite a great life, whilst the characters of Blue Valentine have a very hard life.
I'd much rather be one of the character of Marriage story than of Blue Valentine.

Curious to what about Blue Valentine don't you find as realistic? I agree that Marriage story does find a good balance of the ordinary moments which brings relatable moments though. Just think the ending is the best case for most divorced couples and usually looks more similar to the first.
I don't mean to go off topic but happy to see the homie Durden still lurks for discussion.
