When in a relationship, how much personal space do you generally find you need?

 

1. I don't have a great need for "personal space". I like lots of together time.

 

2. I find my time spent working is enough personal time, the rest I like to spend with my partner.

 

3. As long as I can get one night a week to myself, my personal space needs are met.

 

4. When I'm with my partner I'm completely there, but I do need considerable time for personal reflection.

 

I've been asked this several times and I think I'm messing up my answer since I have no clue what this question is asking. I've been in 1 serious relationship where we spent probably 5 days out of the week together. Other than that when I've dated we'll plan something on the weekends or activities or something during the week.

 

Is this question asking about personal time after your married? Do most people that start dating not have any time for personal reflection?

 

I just got asked this again and I'd like to answer honestly, but I'm very confused.

The question is asking: How much time do you like to spend with your partner. It's trying to determine how often you usually see someone you're dating.

I think the question is referring to any serious relationship, including but limited to marriage. So you could use your experience of your serious relationship to answer the question. EH does give you the option to write your own reply if you think the pre-set answers do not apply to you.

Some relationships outside of work you become connected at the hip.

 

In general in healthy relationships it's good to have some "me" time..this could be you do a hobby at home like woodwork Or quilting. This also includes a night out with the guys/ladies
