5 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Be Spending Too Much Time With Your Partner

You wake up and the first face you see is your partner’s. You do pretty much everything together and everything seems great. Yet,If you’re never apart, it might harm your relationship.

Here are 5 reasons why you shouldn’t spend so much time with your partner.

1. You deserve alone time

Whether you like to admit it or not, there should still be a “me” time for you and a “me” time for your partner. You need your space too.

You need the time to reflect and have your own personal thoughts. It’s okay to be selfish at times. So always take out time for self-care and self-examination.

2. You start neglecting your friends

It’s only natural to make your boyfriend your top priority, but that doesn’t mean you should be letting your friendships fizzle out for him. It’s true that as one gets older time spent with friends reduces yet don’t let your relationship get in the way of that.

3. You never have a chance to miss each other.

Missing someone is actually a pretty good sign that you love them. Not to mention, the reunion after spending some time apart is always a great feeling.

Spending every second together means you no longer know what it’s like when they aren’t around and that will make any separation that comes up a lot harder to deal with.

4. It’s harder to see the problems in your relationship.

It’s pretty much impossible to be objective about your own relationship. That’s why you need other people in your life who care about you to talk to about issues you might be having.

If you never put any effort into maintaining those relationships, you might find you have no one to listen to when you need them.

5. You have a hard time when you are apart.

If you spend all your free time together, how will you feel if he goes away for a weekend without you? You might think that will never happen, but it will.  If you have your own social life, you might actually look forward to having a weekend away from him once in a while.
