There are times when the life of a couple suffers and space can be essential for the bond to be strengthened. Respecting the freedom and personal space of the other is important to have a balanced relationship. It is not a simple subject and that is why the idea of personal and intimate space is the reason for many couple discussions, because sometimes they forget that the other’s space is a right and must always be taken care of.
Steps to follow:
- Spend time doing things alone, no matter what you use it for. It is important that you start thinking about what to do with your time because your partner needs it. Do not see it as something negative, you can use your time alone to go out with friends, play sports, read, go to the movies, go for a walk, volunteer for a cause that motivates you; whatever the activity it is important to keep a space to be yourself and let your partner be too. Recognizing this need is key to a healthy.
- Take advantage of that free time to live new and enriching experiences. Each person can find a new entertainment, go back to a task that you liked and that you left aside. Surely this time designed for you can be dedicated to doing a thousand fun, exciting and exciting things. This will help you to have an agile, open mind and you will feel full of life, also think that you will have more topics of conversation with your partner.
- You must always keep an open communication channel. There are people who for various reasons feel insecure when their partner needs or is enjoying their personal time, doubts, mistrust and ideas of infidelity immediately appear. Therefore, it is essential to maintain good communication to talk about everything openly and clarify any fears that exist. The foundation for the functioning of any relationship is trust. There must also always be constant support. For the sentimental bond to be strong and lasting, support and understanding are necessary. This support must manifest itself in all life decisions that are made. Your partner should be your best friend, not just anyone, so there will be no room for doubt.
- It is very positive to do different activities with your partner, instead of spending all your time together doing the same thing and ending up arguing. Choose to do things that take you out of the routine of work or home and that help enrich your feelings. Another tip to give your partner space is to stop wanting to control everything. Do not fall into the negative role of wanting to solve all the problems of your partner. Part of personal growth is letting the couple make their own decisions and always supporting them, whatever they decide.
- It is essential to respect their uniqueness and way of being. Accept that your partner is different from you or maybe even the opposite. You can love your partner even if you are not really one being. Although this idea is very romantic, it does not have to be the one that suits your relationship specifically. Recognize that you are different and that you love each other unconditionally. With this in mind, accept the likes of your partner and enjoy his free time in his own way.
- Don’t be overly affectionate with your partner. Tokens of love are grateful but when they are constant and exaggerated, they can cause some rejection. When your partner is enjoying his personal time, do not overwhelm him with messages, calls, etc., because in this way you are not respecting his privacy and you will show too much insecurity or even mistrust. A good way to show that you love your partner is to help him enjoy life whatever he does and especially when he is not by your side.
