wanting alone time in a relationship is like looking forward to a weekend in the life of a working man

to want alone time in a relationship shouldn't get you on a guilt trip..it is HEALTHY in capital blocks---it's like asking for a vacation  from a job you really love and would sacrifice most of your life for--yet still you know you need that vacation, or looking forward to a weekend from your co workers..you go have fun with other people or just go relax by yourself and come back rejuvenated and ready to tackle the world..often times its viewed as bad because of the timing in which a partner asks for it or the manner in which the time out is asked for.more often than not,people spend so much cousy time in the initial stages of the relationship that when reality sets in and the human nature to want to be by oneself sometimes kicks in, one partner is so used to having the other around that this may be interpreted as rejection.i learnt today that it is actually a healthy aspect of a relationship which if not given may end up building resentment and stifling  the individuality each partner brings to the table..thanks to Dr Wiki and Dr Google...so next time your partner  says i need space..give them space..its for your own good and for their good :) and yep..i'm taking time for me soon --just to be the crazy me that i actually am....
