Do you think that vacations apart with different groups of friends away from your partner is healthy?

It depends, right now I'd not like it because I often feel we don't get enough time together. But if we were living together and feeling really full and satisfied and secure In Our relationship, then it would probably be a good thing.


I think the occasional Guys Only Weekend or Ladies Weekend is not only healthy-- it's essential. There are times when guys need tp be guy and girls need to be girls. Let's face it... guy talk is BORING to girls and girl talk is BORING to girls. But the key is that it needs to be very occasional and not to the point where the other person feels excluded.


I'd much prefer to be with her, but I would be ok with her doing something like that with her family sometimes


I want to say yes but just don't feel comfortable to do so. Maybe that's something to work towards.


I think this totally depends on the friends that each person would be going with. I don't think that I would want to go without him though. I would say that maybe the circumstances of this kind of situation would need to be set for me to properly answer.


I do not think so. I think short trips are ok, but full vacations...not really.


Yes but need more vacation with my hubby away from kids first


sure, I would prefer he go if he can, and I would miss him if he didn't, as is the case vice versa, but I don't think either of us would tell the other or guilt trip them about going off and having a good time. We lead busy lives, sometimes things just don't line up like we want them to.
*tell the other "no" woops, typo!

Maybe


Vacations? Idk about that. A day/weekend I think would be ok. But we can't stand to be away from eachother for more than a day


Yes, it's healthy


I am already in a long distance relationship. Some weekends we have to miss each other from Skype session because we have our own schedules. But yes, why not?


Sure I think a person needs both


I think if it's a guys trip or a girls trip then yes. We don't go on enough vacations to be going on them apart.


It's healthy but we are both clingy so I don't think it's an issue either way.
