uno al otro

Question

I want to say something like: For both of them, there are things that are keeping them at a distance from each other. In Spanish I have written the sentence has: Por ambos, hay cosas que mantienen a distancia de uno al otro. I feel that the structure of the sentence isn't necessarily correct, and I'm just wondering how to improve it. Thanks

Answer 1

Hey thanks for the input guys!

Answer 2

Hello, in spanish this sentence would be like this: "Para ambos, hay cosas que los separan al uno del otro" // "En ambos casos, hay cosas que los alejan (or "separan") al uno del otro"

Saludos desde España

Answer 3

...hay cosas que los mantienen a distancia el uno del otro.

That's my take.
