This Is What It Really Means When Your Partner Asks You for Time, According to Psychology

A relationship can present certain obstacles and problems . Considering this issue, it's very common for one of the two partners to ask for time off to resolve some issues. What does this type of request mean, according to the diagnosis made by psychology professionals?

This decision may be a result of wear and tear, and therefore, anxiety, uncertainty, and other feelings may arise. However, it is important to remain calm, as this does not mean the end of the relationship but rather is immersed in personal rethinking that can arise when a relationship experiences routine moments. Addressing this issue, the European Institute of Positive Psychology considered it important to understand what the expression means and also to respect the agreements the couple establishes during this period of distance.

What could be the main reasons for a couple to ask for time off?

Through her personal Instagram account, psychologist Silvia Congost emphasized that one of the two partners feels they'd be better off without the other. This could also arise from frequent arguments or fights. (See more: It's in Antioquia and is one of the hottest towns in the Colombian region.) It could also be due to emotional overload or even inconveniences one of the two partners is experiencing in the family or work environment.

How to overcome a relationship crisis?

The European Institute of Positive Psychology addressed this issue and offered some recommendations to help you overcome the difficult time you're experiencing with a loved one:

1- Use assertive communication to solve problems.

2 - Take responsibility for your mistakes and find strategies to prevent them from leading to negative situations.

4- Don't look for someone to blame in the relationship or a third party in discord.
