Relationships Require Space for each individual

McLovin:
What's up everybody? This week's issue is dealing with space.
Space is a major factor in relationships. It can be what drives two individuals madly in love or what drives them madly apart. The main issue with space is when it is too much and when it's not enough.
Here's my theory. I've always followed the quote by Eleanor Roosevelt, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." It is ok for you to want to spend every living second with each other but there are going to be times where the two of you will need to have me time. Being apart sometimes allow you to appreciate and realize how important your significant other is to you.
It's not ok for couples to spend time with each other 24-7, 365 days out the year. Go out with your girls for a girl's night out women and go to the sports bar and watch a game with your buddies' fellas.
It is ok to be apart occasionally, it is not going to be the end of the world.
One that same note, however, going out to the sports bar with your boys every other night and leaving your girl at home is a definite NO NO! Ladies going out dancing with you girls every weekend and coming home in the wee hours of the morning is not advised as well.
The two of you need to have a common ground on what is appropriate and what is not. Healthy conversation goes a long way. Remember, love is not smothering each other to death.
And also love isn't seeing each other once a week. There are guidelines and boundaries with any relationship, just make the proper ones and you will enjoy and happy, respectful and fun-loving relationship.
I'm McLovin, Keep Love Alive.
Lady Love:
This week we are going to discuss an issue that might offend some of you ladies.
However, my intentions are not this at all. It's to simply educate you so your relationship will flourish.
Let's talk about space. Don't be na've ladies, you respect your space as much as your partner does.
Think about it.
Think about the last time "he" was all up in your hair and whatever excuse you said, or "made up" he still didn't get the hint to just leave?
