[quote=Anonymous]There’s nothing wrong with wanting some alone time, and maybe he’s a person that enjoys his alone time and isn’t communicating that effectively. However, there’s also nothing wrong with wanting attention and companionship from your spouse. Issues arise when you can’t compromise and make both happen. My husband and I both really enjoy alone time, but, thankfully for us, I work opposite schedule 3 days a week, so he gets 3 evenings to himself and I get to come home those days and enjoy some me time before going to bed (while he’s at work). I love my time alone and don’t miss his company at all. That being said, I do love being with him on the other evenings, when we are both home. One of the evenings we are both home we both hang out with my mom, who lives with us, binge watching Netflix until bedtime. Obviously this isn’t a doable set up in every marriage, but I’m using it as an example of finding a middle ground that works. [/quote]
