i see this as a worrisome thing at times but others say it's a good thing

Sometimes people just want to be alone...unfortunately that is the downside of being in a relationship / being married. You want them, and they want to be alone.

 

This phenomenon has been known to split many a couple up. Note that is most of the time nothing to do with you or that person....it's usually external stressors that act as a catalyst here i.e. exams, work issues and periods etc

OP, sometimes people neglect things when in a relationship. Like housework, or friends, or family. For some, it can be easy to get caught up in their partner. A few days off gives them a chance to catch up on the other things in their life.

 

Look at it as an opportunity to the things that your partner might hate. Like play your favourite music loudly, play video games, etc. Or wash clothes, do the housework, stock the fridge, go for a beer with a mate, etc.

Srs though, needing a little alone time is a normal thing. Don't you feel the same way sometimes? Also there's that saying of "absence makes the heart grow fonder." If you're around her 24/7 it might kill some of the spark/intrigue/whatever in your relationship.
