I interviewed about 20 men, single and married. I asked them what it is that they want more from their partners. Their answer was “space.” Why? Because they felt suffocated by their partners.
According to the experts, it is common for a man to pull away after being deeply connected to a woman. This is actually healthy. The space allows him to reconnect with himself. So, the more space he has to pull away, the faster he can bounce back, and the more excited and ready he can be to spend time with his partner.
Here the reasons men pull away:
- Men need to regain their sense of self with the “me” state.
- Men need to re-energized
- Men desire autonomy and independence. This is part of what makes them men!
- Men need time to process their feelings when they are falling in love with a woman
Remember, a man is likely to approach you, ready for more love, if you can respect his “time away.”
