Can you clarify this quote?

Question

"and when i lived, i was your other wife, and when you loved, you were my other husband"

it's from MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING

Answer 1

Oh I LOVE that play.

It meant that she had to fake her death so he could trust her again and they could "start over" so to speak

Answer 2

Never heard of much ado about nothing, but just from reading it, I think it means you should've taken the opportunity to love me when you had the chance.  Might be wrong though.
