5. Let go of the fear of being alone.
Some people hate being alone, that is why they prefer being around other people all the time. This might have something to do with unresolved attachment issues from your childhood or other toxic relationship, therefore, your partner’s request for space might make you feel very nervous.
But you need to understand that having some alone time is actually healthy for both of you and for the relationship as well. Try not to worry and overthink this too much, or create false scenarios in your head. See the time you spend apart from each other like something that will strengthen your relationship.
While hearing that your partner might want some time apart is not easy, that doesn’t mean the relationship is doomed. How you respond to their request is very important, so if you’re willing to give them some space, everything will likely be fine.
