Relationship Problems

[JackieM77]

Hi everyone, first post on the forum, sorry that it's not on a happier note.

I've been with my partner for a few years now, and I feel like we're drifting apart. I snapped the other day saying I needed some time to myself and my partner got really upset. I'm really unsure of what to do. Our relationship has perfect up to now, and I think it's my fault that it's all falling apart. Sorry, I just need some people to talk to. I just need my partner to understand I need time to myself every now and again.

You need to sit down and have a proper chat with him. If you think it's issues you need to deal with then you need to explain the space you need etc and come to an arrangement for the sake if the relationship, what do you think your main issues are.

I just feel like I never have enough time to myself or to go out with my own friends.

yea you need.to have a talk.with him and explain you want to do some more things with friends etc and suggest he does the same..sometimes thats all you need to realise how much you like being together and will enjoy each others company more..besides it could also be just a phase your going through if you feel like your missing out you need to get it out of your system.

Or... if Krystal's advice doesn't work then I agree talking, but I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting time to yourself sometimes. I suppose it depends how much (if you only want to see him 2 hours a week I can understand he would feel miffed) but it's not healthy to be joined at the hip.

Krystal why don't you fuck off and stop trying to feed off people. No one on mumsnet is stupid enough to fall for your shit anyway.

Sorry OP this shit just gives me the rage.
