None !! I miss you Marcelo I want to be with you 24/7! The pictures of Malabo look very appealing! I want to be with you !!!!!!


it's weird because we have been together almost 6 years and the longer we are together the more time I want with him! I like being near him even when we aren't interacting just so I can feel his energy. he grounds me and I give him wings xo


It really varies. Together or apart, the love stays strong!


Apart all day every day so you have the pleasure of reconnecting in the evening and catching up on the day's events. Plus an evening (or weekend afternoon) to myself each week -- for shopping, time with girlfriends, etc.


I think for us a small amount of time apart is ok, but overall we like to spend %90 of our time together, even if we aren't talking or interacting in some way.


Well since we work in the same company and live together I would say not very much and I love it😀


I think it depends on the people. I prefer short breaks thru the year of a day or two. Otherwise, I love being with my guy!


I think it just depends on your schedule but I don't think a lot of time apart each week is a good thing.
I don't believe a good relationship is maintained by time apart. I believe it's maintained by quality time together. I do think its good for each person to have time to themselves or friends as needed but their is no set amount of time.

Depends on the individuals


Certainly is different for each couple. After a couple of days I tend to miss her exponentially!


Toilet breaks. Jk depends


Haha well seeing as how we hardly ever have any time together I'd say the more time spent together the better but everyone needs alone time sometimes so you just gotta find out what works best for you


As little as possible. :)


However much it takes to earn the bacon!


it really varies depending on the couple, but for me in this relationship, I think the one or two evenings per week that we are apart is just right. However, I think we need to improve the quality of the time that we are together.
AGREED
