Enough time to do your own thing but not enough where your always apart
I believe that everyone needs alone time even when you are in love. Gives you a chance for self reflection. But id say at minimum an hour a day and im not talking about while we are both at work, but under the same roof
Believe it or not I always want to be with him.

There is always a good thing about being apart to have time with friends. But you still need time together as often as you want.
We adapt, and that is one of my favorite things about us.
Not sure... But I know I'm away far too much working night shift and it stinks
We typically spend nearly 50hrs a week apart w work
Don't know.
enough time that you can talk about what went on.
Enough to work and come home unless im seeing my friends to
Well I work so at least 40 hrs
Each couple is different but I think as the relationship advances, so should the time apart decrease. Once living together (if it goes even that far), the time "apart" is more of a short downtime than actual extensive time apart. Personally I have always felt happier and more content with my BF than without, but each person is different.
LOL... Not as much as we are currently spending! It depends on the relationship but both parties need time to pursue other interests with friends too.... Poker night.... Girls night out, etc.
