When I'm home, I'm otherwise engaged. If she needs help with something, I help her, but at the moment we are probably as close to separated as possible while being under one roof. Not even much texting.
The question is, can this be overdone? Is it possible to give too much "space?"
The reason I ask is because one of her core complaints that led to our breakdown was, "You don't seem to want to talk to me" or "Our conversations are too superficial." Wondering if the current state of affairs might just look like more of the same.
I have this exact same question! Since discovering this site and making my first post a week ago, I'm amazed at how similar my experience is to many others on here. I don't yet know how your situation turned out but I wish the best for you.
This post of mine is from a while ago. As I am today, the answer to the question is automatic. I assume you saw Boat14's reply.
What is best for you is typically counterintuitive to what you think.
