Need a little space

i am surfing in the net and bumped into a quotation stating "a Tree cannot grow properly if it is always a shadows in the shadow of another tree". this is about of having SPACE in any kind of relationship. even in a couple, yes, you can grow together but still, you must need to grow individuality too. we came to a point, that no matter how long our relationship with our love, we also find ourselves looking for spaces and just wanted to be alone. have you been through this? :)

I've experienced this several times. There had always been a part in every relationship I've had that she always limit me and it just pushes me to the edge. Those are the times when i'm beginning to think about cooling off or breaking up cuz the relationship won't work if i'm being held in to the corner.

hi frontvisions! yes, we do need a little space in a relationship, and sometimes when the other one whom you'd told him/her about having space with your relationship, taking it awkward and sometimes thought that they had been stepped with their ego. but come to realize, its still for the sake of their growing relationship. :)

My interpretation is that you have to be independent. And live for your own good. You still have to work, do your life even you are with him r not. Life is so beautiful if that's what you want. And a very unlucky is that's what you think. We still need their presence, time, care and love. We are living to give love, almost the same way. Unless your love with each other are not growing and working. Your tired with each other that why you need space. If that's what you want so give yourself some time. Feel free. Then you will realize if you still want to continue loving him or not. Remember this.."No man is n Island". Good day!

Every individual will need to have their own space, for example, when someone come near to you and talk to you, if he/she stand too near to you, you will definitely feel suffocated and you will unconsciously step backward to get some space between you and the person. It is all set in the mind. Even when you with your partner or your loves one, you will probably sometime need your own time to do some personal stuff.
