AIBU to ask how much time you spend with your partner?

Just thinking really. If you have a partner, who you live with, how much time do you spend together? Do you have dinner together most nights? Do you do your own thing in the evening or spend time together? DH and I seem to be leading fairly separate lives, but I don’t know if once you’ve been together for a long time, as we have, and have kids (we have two) you just don’t spend as much time together? I’m not unhappy, but I wondered if it was unusual.

20+ years with DH. We're in the house together every evening, eat together and are 'around' each other all weekend but we don't often sit and chat - We're doing our own thing alongside each other if that makes sense?
I go out whenever I like & so does he. Very separate lives in many I suppose but at the same time, we see a lot of each other.

We are a family with 2 grown up ( 1 about to go to uni, 1 been at home but about to do postgrad).

We eat together every night and usually lunch at weekend (often out). We also have their girlfriend/boyfriend/friends eat with us regularly.

As a couple we go out a couple of times a week- cinema, meal etc. We both go to the gym regularly and together a couple of times a week

We have a big house and so don't live on top of each other. We both also contract and work away a couple of nights a week.

When both at home we walk the dog together at night (sometimes via pub)

Out with friends or entertaining at home on average once a week.
