Lovers who need a Holiday

YoursChelbie

I think there's a song somewhere that mentions that sometimes lovers need a holiday, time away from each other.

Does it help two people to see things more clearly when they spend some time away? Has it helped you ?

After the dust settles, you either move on and forget all about them or you gain a different perspective on the whole relationship.

Has a separation been a useful thing to help sort out how you feel?

If you suddenly found out they hooked up with someone else would it make you quiet and pensive or glad they are out of the way for good?

Just wondering.

In my previous love lives before I was currently married - when one partner needed space - it usually meant they needed freedom to see other people. And usually it ends up with one person hurting the other in time. Space and distance in my opinion on a long time aspect only hurts - if it's for a few days a week, thats o.K. But otherwise , it's asking for trouble - in my opinion

I'm a person that has a couple of gfs and they all know I can't really live with anybody right now for more than a few days, but we keep in touch by phone and rondivues, kind of nice they tell me thier problem I help where I can, we all have freedom to do what ever and try to respect one and other, and that often leads to more sex and good treatment expressed toward one another.

Yeah I don't see how you can avoid not wanting one,, unless thier is a lot of insecurity.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder so they say. It is good to give the other person their space.

I just recently went through a painful breakup myself. I am just starting to get over her but I still sometimes catch myself thinking about her.

The funny thing is I don't hate her only what she did. I do wish her well....

The song is called, Hard to say I'm sorry by Chicago.

From my personal experiences with taking a holiday, it leads to another and another and eventually becomes permanent.

I do enjoy time and space when DH is working away from home. I love to be by myself, it is recharging. And it is nice to have a chance to miss each other. I can't say I'd seek it out, but I enjoy it when it presents itself. So does he, I think.

I dunno. My previous line of employment had me spending sometimes months away from my family. Makes the heart grow fonder, eh I guess to a certain point. But it really is not all it is cracked up to be at all.
