© As a professional dating service owner, I get to see the “wish lists” of my clients. One of the things they often say is “I need someone who will give me space”. Sometimes we think that because we want to see someone as often as possible, that they want the same thing. This is not always the case.
When a relationship is new, we cannot see enough of our partner, and this is just the time when we should start practising the art of giving them space. Even the Bible says that we should not visit our neighbours too often because they will tire of us and start to despise us! It is true that absence makes the heart grow fonder. If you want your partner to really crave your company, try being a little scarce. It works nearly every time!
Paired with giving your partner space is giving him/her freedom. When my husband was still alive he gave me all the space and freedom I could possibly have desired. And do you know what? I didn’t want to go anywhere! But if he had cramped my style and been possessive I would have found every excuse under the sun to just get away. That is how we human beings are wired and this is just one of the things it would do us all good to remember when we want a relationship to work.
