I work from home, doing my projects, but Frank works at an office. Every moment that he is not at home, I miss him. We always miss each other. When we have the kids, we cuddle lots but get less intimate moments, it's a different dynamic. I tend to have a nightly schedule too, so we cuddle in bed but he goes to bed way before I do and I wake up way after him. When we have time together, like vacation, we always appreciate every moment. I think a few hours apart allow us yo be in our own bubbles which we need for meditative states. We all need some alone time a bit every day. And when an argument arises, just to cool off. I get what you mean. When we spend a long time together though, that strengthens the bond too, in a different way, and being always together does not mean we don't have our own bubbles to do our own things. Establishing and respecting boundaries helps us as individuals, which also help us in all our relationships. Right now we are due for vacation where Frank is home every day. It will be good. We've been so busy. But the time apart teaches us to jot take for granted the time when we can be glued at the hip.

I would however not be able to spend prolonged time apart from Frank, days or weeks. We did that once, it was just 2 days, one night. Never again 🤣 Maybe we happen to be more emotionally dependent people, but we miss each other the minute we are not together. But we understand the necessity too in certain circumstances.

I hope she enjoys her stay with her family.
