♥♥♥ The Digits Are Dating ♥♥♥

** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
Today's puzzle is (yet) another 100% sudoku from the mighty brain of zetamath... it's called Modern Romance and it turns out all of the digits 1-9 are dating :) Give it a try at the link below:

https://app.crackingthecryptic.com/su...

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. The digits are dating. They have formed three couples and one throuple (a couple but with three people). The make-ups of these relationships are to be discovered. A heart between two cells indicates that the digits in those cells are in a relationship. ALL hearts are given. Clues outside the grid give the sum of the digits between the outermost members of the throuple in that row/column. eg If 123 are the digits in the throuple and the last row is 46 1(935)2 87 then the clue would be 17 (9+3+5).

Also, do check out this puzzle called The Aquarium by rubenscube which appeared on the channel earlier this week - it's a masterpiece.
