What is it with people? Why is it so hard for some people to understand something that you want in a relationship. If you need to be alone for a while to get your life back together shouldn’t your partner support you?

If life was a disney movie, then yeah. *sings* “you caann’t always gettttt what u waaaaaannt”
Sure make unreasonable demands or your partner, while you’re out screwing someone else’s brains out err I mean ‘getting your life in order”Leave me alone, its not you ; its me. I want a break but please be there hanging on a string when I want you.I CAN’T see why someone wouldn’t be down with that. Relationships are a together thing.
I’m not sure what this bitch is even about….if you wnt to be alone for a while doesn’t that mean your partner is really just a friend supporting you and no longer your partner??
The fuck you are talking about? YOu may THINK you want to be alone, but if you actually are in a loving relationship and the person gives two shits about you then they will try to find out what’s wrong and try to help you. Unless you mean you need to blow off steam and need to go for a walk to think things through. But I doubt that is what you ment so you’re an asshole…
i actually agree with Jenn….wow. the world truly is a funny place.
Been there, done that. Instead of breaking up, space gives clarity. I think your partner should support you if you want space, especially if your partner is the reason you need to reassess things.
