Both spending time together and giving personal space are important—they just serve different purposes in a healthy relationship.
Spending time together builds connection. It helps you bond, create memories, communicate better, and feel valued. Without enough quality time, people can start to feel distant or unimportant.
Personal space, on the other hand, supports individuality. It gives each person time to recharge, reflect, pursue their own interests, and maintain a sense of self. Without space, a relationship can start to feel overwhelming or dependent.
