Do you spend time apart?

Do you and your fiancé(e) spend time apart? Never, always, or sometimes?

    Sometimes. We hang together a lot, but we do give each other space when needed.

    Sometimes, I have a job where I work nights and weekends so it's built in our schedule

    We're long-distance right now, so we spend far too much time apart. But, when we lived together, we still had alone time. Its important to keep our relationship healthy.

    Sometimes and Never, I get the feeling that he thinks we need a break if I spend time apart. I like to do my own thing sometimes too!! Smiley laugh It doesn't bother me though but it's good to have time apart.

    Yes! We need our separate time! Thankfully, he is off work Fri/Sat and I have off Sat/Sun!

    We don't live together yet and we both have children from a previous marriage so there are some days we don't get to see each other when he has his son on a weeknight. I'd say we see each other 5 days a week. We facetime when we don't see each other, in the morning and before bed. We move in together at the end of May and we'll have less alone time then unless we are at work.

    Work is basically the time we spend apart or I'll go on a weekend trip to visit my friends. Definitely necessary though.

    Sometimes. My family lives in another town so I like to take the train and visit during a weekend every now and then.

    Yes, we spend time apart. It's great to have a conversation with someone else from time to time to gain a different perspective on things.

    Always. He works and has a million hobbies in the garage. I don't need is every waking breath to know how precious I am to him and 3 months or more a year I am stuck in bed. We celebrate when we are both able.

    Never, we are long distance right now and only get to see each other 4 months out of the year. Since we are apart for so long, we always spend our time together, aside from whenever we are at work. I suppose that will change though, once we get married and are living together.

    Sometimes, it really just depends what we have going on.

    Yup, we live together so we see each other a lot and 85% of the time we're together BUT we do value our times apart, he goes out with the guys and I have random girls nights, we don't have to be attached at the hip all the time.
