How important is SPACE and FREEDOM in a marriage relationship??

Question

Thanks

Answer 1

It's extremely important. Whether the couple needs a lot of space or only a little...it's about complimenting each other's personalities and anticipating what they need. I, persoanlly, need a lot of space and freedom...I never do stupid things or act unruly...but I like my space..i like my solitude and quiet time. I like to go out with my cousin'd for lunch when -i- feel like going and not have my husband depends on me being home to entertain him at all times. In return, my partner has the same reedom i do. nights out withthe guys, the chance to sleep in, quiet time if he wants it, etc...

some coupels need more, others want/need less...but no matter the prefrence..it's extremely important

Answer 2

well all i have to say is if your looking 4 those 2 things than stay single. .

Answer 3

If you need space and freedom, then don't get married.  Marriage is the total opposite of space and freedom.

Answer 4

i think space and freedom are very important!!! i'm not married but engaged and live together we regularly go out separately with our own friends i think its needed it gives us time away i trust him and he trusts me so there is really no need to spend every waking minute together, and i think its true absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Answer 5

Too much freedom is a accident waiting to happen to keep it real.  

Answer 6

Everybody needs their own Space and Time

Time sounds better then Freedom

Answer 7

VERY VERY VERY important.. It is a healthy choice for a marriage. Being in a marriage you see your spouse daily and there is nothing wrong with letting your spouse and even yourself go out with their friends a few times a month. If you're under your spouse all of that the time that is a recipe for disaster.

Answer 8

I think it depends on you both as a couple.  Do you both enjoy your space and freedom in your relationship?  If you do, then you should pursue it.  I personally love my space and freedom and it is not for any particular reason, I just like time to myself and to be able to do what I want when I want and my partner feels the same.  If it works for both of you then do it.  If it is one sided then you have a bit of a problem because the other half will not understand and that could create all sorts of problems.  But I worry that you are asking this question after you are married.  lol

Answer 9

Depends w/ each relationship, but for myn' we don't need or want alot of space apart from each other. We both trust each other so there is alot of freedom. Hope I helped!

Answer 10

Stay single and enjoy your free space and freedom

all you want, otherwise if your in a relationship, you

don't get that space and freedom.  Get it!!!

Answer 11

They're right up there with love & trust.

Answer 12

Freedom is important.

But if you want space then you shouldn't have gotten married

Answer 13

100% with aiaiam above. Space and freedom are essential. just as long as it's a healthy amount and the needs of the relationship are still being met. Marriages of longevity are acheived by being able to be yourself. And being encouraged to do that.

Answer 14

Keeping ones individual SELF happy is VERY important no matter what type of relationship you have.  

HOWEVER, when in a committed relationship, one must learn to SHARE and make COMPROMISES.  That means BOTH people need to be in agreement as to things like personal space and freedom - like what is not enough and what is too much.

Neither mate should allow the other to abuse any "right" in any relationship, nor should either mate allow the other to totally have control over them.  

Answer 15

Important but don't let it get between you. I gave mine a lot of space and eventually freedom but it came back to haunt me. You need to stay in touch with each other, so to speak.

Answer 16

I think they are as equally important whether married or single. Every individual should have the freedom to do whatever the like within reason of course as long as it is not disrespecting the relationship. I also feel every individual should be allowed some quality "me time" as long as you can balance the space and spendig quality time wth your mate.
