Give Space When Needed

One of the most important things that a person needs is alone time. Everyone needs it once and a while, some more than others. Respect each others need to be alone to do the things that they want to do for a while. Some people hear, "I just need to be alone for a while", and a siren goes off in their head that the relationship is in trouble. Really, the statement holds much less weight. All it means is, I just want to read my book alone, or write, or think, or whatever.
