Recommit and Reconnect to Love – Day 10
Recommit and Reconnect to Love Day 10
Have you ever had that sort of day where you want to unplug the phones and hide under the covers, stay in bed and read trash magazines? Sometimes people need alone time to really detach, recharge and renew themselves. And maybe your partner needs some chill, or man-cave time, once in a while.
For this challenge we are asking you to give your partner some space if he really needs or wants it. Alone time is still a very important component of your relationship. Remember you met each other, before you were a couple, and found each other interesting. What were those things that you both did back then? Are you still doing them? If not, it is time to reconnect to some of your individuality and bring that back into the relationship.
Maybe your partner wants time alone to watch a football game, golf or fish with his buddies, or just seclude himself in the garage and build something. Give him the time to do it. Don’t make it about you, build up resentment or allow yourself to feel he is taking something from you by spending time alone.
This is also a good time for you to do something for you. Maybe you want to take an art or cooking class, or go out with some friends you have not seen in a while. It is not always about the ‘team’ dynamic. Spending time apart as well as together really will build a stronger relationship.
