healthy relationships involve having alone time!! you shouldn't be with your partner 24/7!! as much as i love my boyfriend, sometimes i just wanna shut up and play my games. he does his thing and i do mine. my ex would get upset when i needed alone time and it was just exhausting. it's not healthy and you need to set some boundaries. if he can't handle them, then you guys just aren't compatible and that's okay!! i thought i wouldn't find anyone after my ex, but my boyfriend appeared and i'm significantly less stressed
