What do you mean by this? How would Brexit make the relationship positive, because the UK doesn't want the same things as the EU so they won't be in conflict?

The UK has always been a reluctant partner holding back EU ambitions of ever closer union. The EU will now be much freer to pursue federalism. The UK will now be a friend and partner, but no longer in the dysfunctional relationship.
It's like how divorced couples can often have a more positive relationship after the divorce than during the unhappy marriage.
Not as close a relationship, but a more healthy one.
