Do you think that spending time away from your spouse helps the relationship?

Like going to stay at a friends for a week?

Answer #1

Yep it sure does, absence makes the heart grow founder. Believe me I know, I’m in a long distance relationship

Answer #2

Time apart definitely CAN help. It’s a great way for both of you to think about your relationship and of each other. It can help you rediscover your love for each other, to miss each other. It’s a great time to remember why you fell in love with each other and to think of where you want to go in your relationship.

Answer #3

Answer #7

i have talked to him about it. even tho he really doesnt want me to go, he agrees that it will help. We have been together non stop for almost a year now and havnt really had time to miss each other. I told him i think this will help us come to realize what a blessing we are to each other. he understands and agrees.

Answer #8

thanks stefie :)

Answer #9

I think it will help to :-) and good luck

Answer #10

thanks :)

Answer #11

Well that’s a great sign :) he doesn’t want you to go, maybe after the time apart he will realize he needs to put in an effort as well!

Answer #12

I think so. I think this may be the perfect thing to bring us closer. He did apologize for being an @ss lol. but i am a b!tch to sometimes so i apologized to. he said he doesnt wanna lose me. So i think this time apart may just do the trick. Love is a fire. In order for it to burn u have to keep feeding it and fanning it. or it will burn out.

Answer #13

Exactly! I’m so glad that you both are trying to work things out :) and I’m glad he’s finally seeing that there’s a problem there. Best of luck to the both of you, I’m willing to bet things will turn out just fine.

Answer #14

No because some if not a lot of guys will party and get laid if given mate time…While the cats away,the mice will play ect….just sayin xhugx

Answer #15

haha nah thats only the dawgs that act that way. Plus eventually we might have to be apart for reasons such as family issues. we cant always be together. If he is gonna cheat then he dont love me and im better off. Doesnt matter if im away or not. a cheater will cheat no matter what.

Answer #16

thanks Janice :D i think so too.

Answer #17

Yes, time apart helps.

Answer #18

thanks :)

Answer #19

Yeah, I think it’s good for couples to be able to go off and do their own thing. It’s not good when two people are always around each other ever second of the day, it can feel suffocating. It’s good for the both of you to find little parts in your day to go hang out with some friends or just relax alone at the golf course or paint or whatever it is you both like to do.

Answer #20

Your Welcome :)

Answer #21

Thank you. We are having issues. So imma go stay at a friends for 5 or so days

Answer #22

yes any time you can get away from your better half do it. and if they don’t care poke some one while your gone

Answer #23

surely… it always have a positive impact upon the relationship. it can be used as catalyst to boost your feelings towards eachother

Answer #24

Annie I do think rather then ending the relationship right now you would be better to seperate awhile. Your pregnant and although I’m not saying it’s all you by any means. What I am thinking is that with the hormone and body changes your going through, you may not be getting a true sense of your feelings as your emotions may be in a roller coaster ride right now. Likewise, he may be going through some emotional roller coasters as well with a baby on the way and your pregnancy . Getting space apart without doing anything drastic, right now. May be the better way to go, till after you have the baby and see if you still feel the same. Things could change in him as well as you after…In the MEAN-time, just getting some space away may be the better way to go for now.

Answer #25

Things ard already lookin better. Thanks :)

Answer #26

Glad to hear it….:)

Answer #27

I spent over 300 days apart from my husband and let me tell you it was insane when he got back. Just like when we first got together. He is in the military. Spending time away from each other at stressful parts in a relationship is good for some and bad for others. Try spending a week away and see how you feel and how he feels. If you guys are meant to be then it will be. Don’t try too hard and let your feelings flow naturally.

Answer #28

every relationship needs space. it is normal

Answer #29

Distance and time away does help, me and my girlfriend live in two different towns/villages, and sometimes we may go weeks without seeing other, also in September she is going to London for Uni…but it’s the fact that when we do see each other, it’s so much more special because we have things to talk about, and just want to see each other even more :)

Answer #30

My boyfriend broke up with me last week after two years relationship. We both are in high-school. He told me he no longer in love with me like the way he use to and just wanted us to be friends. I accepted his friendship in order to try and get him back i cried and pleaded for him to give me if i have done anything wrong but he refused. The day after he break up with me I told him that i will never give up on this one. So my friend told me about a temple called obolospelltemple@gmail.com this temple helped me to get him back to me and now we are together. All thanks to obolospelltemple@gmail.com i am Jenny

Answer #31

Yes I do think that spending time away from your bf or gf is helping for the relationship that way you argue less and you manage to keep the romance and the love . Living together with someone is the worst thing you can do. That is my opinion from my experiance.
