One of the big pains for couples on the messages is marking unread.
I will read a message then mark it unread for my wife to read. She'll then read it and mark it unread so I read it.
We're not attached at the hip you know 
So, can we have a box to tick, read by him, read by her, read by both when both been ticked. That would be better also for people to see that their message has only been seen by one of the couple and save on some of the angst people feel when they feel as though they aren't being answered.
Also, had another embarrassing thing this morning when I'd been talking with a guy, and then my wife said something to him and sent him kisses etc and he thought it was from me. So the earlier post about identifying which of the couple a message was from would still merit being looked at. |

For the extra 2 seconds it would take to sign which one of you just commented?  |

As for mails being read. We leave a note on the profile that sent the mail so we know whether I/ he wants to meet them or not. Also save the mail to saved messages to keep track of definite 'yes's'. |

What about different colourerd text so we know which side of the couple we are chatting to at the time. A couple I used to know done it in chat rooms made it so much easier. Who said what!
Another handy thing might be a busy button when your into a chat to put a temp block so you can chat in peace without interruptions. |

I suggested this exact thing a little while ago, quite a few couples supported it, one couple was against, and a few singles for some reason felt the need to object to it.
I'm told it's a very easy addition technically speaking. |

If you are in a to-and-fro conversation thread - this is impossible to track using notes. |

The couple objected based on they said that some people would misuse the facility, pretending to be the other
I countered by saying that every facility on fab is misused in one way or another, it just happens, doesn't mean we take all the tools and features off.
Sometimes people object for objection's sake.
It would be a brilliant feature for couples, simple as that, but I don't think fab want to know really, from what I see they rarely even comment on these suggestion threads. Bit disappointing. |

Well that's heartening at least. People suggest because they feel they know a way to improve the site, and improving things surely is good for the owners.
The couples system for messaging could definitely use a form of improvement, even if the right proposal has yet to be suggested. |

Pink text for girls and blue for boys can be misused but they do it in black anyway. This would be so useful for me instead of asking repeatedly who said that.
We can dream in hope. Nevermind we will wait and see |
