Forever. I can't stand being apart from her.
Never, I'm a pisces!
The only time I need/want alone time are the first 10 minutes I get home from work or school. I just need a bit of silence after a day full of talking.
I can't get enough right now I don't see her enough so wouldn't know
Depending on how my day goes but typically it's about 1 hour I need to myself on a bad day to recharge from socializing period. Other than that, we are inseparable!
Probably 4 or 5 days. My baby knows I love spending time with him but he also knows I need my alone time. He probably wouldn't last that long anyway before he started missing his precious vidya games
3 days
Around 2 days - but depends if there are recharge moments - if there are then longer
I don't think there is a limit, we're good doing lots or a little... So long as neither of us is hungry or cold or tired... So hiking up a mountain will test this theory!
Oh it isn't a proper mountain...

No idea
Not sure. I get a lot of alone time at work, so not sure if I'd need it when I am with him.

Depends on how long we've been apart for but if I want some alone time I'll let him know then get up and leave the room for a bit or he could if I needed the current room we are in. Maybe have a girls night if I felt like it. He could do the same if he ever felt the need I know we all need time away from each other.
I have not gotten to that point
Ha. This will never be the case.
Agreed!!!

Before her, I always wanted alone time. Now, I want to spend every available moment I have together.
