Teaser For The Nite; Understanding Your Man; When he says he needs his space, what does that exactly mean? Does it mean he wants to break up? Does he need time to give more attention to his life or work? Usually when a man says he needs his space, he needs his space away from you. There is something in the relationship that isn't sitting right with him.... Some men use the need space line as a way to let you down easy. They have decided that they don't want to continue with the relationship and they are hoping you will just end it for them and save them the trouble of being the bad guy. Sad but true. Still you wonder why he would want to end it and why not just tell you he wants to end it instead of saying "he needs space". The main reason though that a guy feels he needs space is because he is sensing that you are ahead of him in the relationship of more invested. Perhaps you have giving him most of your time, are always available and he feels he is fast becoming the center of your Universe. This is scary for not only a man but for any human being that is emotionally pretty healthy. When he starts to feel you are depending on him for a level of your well being, he feels you may begin to or already have set up expectations. Maybe you expect him to call everyday, maybe you expect him to spend most of his free time with you. Maybe you expect him to always greet you with terms of endearment. Regardless, a man has to give to you because he wants to and if he feels it is expected, it just won't be the same for him. When a man tells you he needs space, he is telling you to slow down. He is telling you to not depend on him. He is hoping you won't fall apart when he asks for it. If he says he needs space, give it to him, and get busy with your life. If he doesn't come back around in a week or so, you have your answer and you know which of these reasons he needs his space. This is why it is so important to space the relationship and not begin to invest your everything into a man too soon. It will back fire on you and he will begin to feel smothered or trapped. Take more responsibility for your own happiness. Men love happy women. Pls Like & Share Written By Ariwoola Temitayo Issues
