Well, there are some people that you don't mind spending all the time free you have with them...and there are couples that live in separate houses also. It all comes to compatibility and communication about wants and needs. Everything is possible I think when two people are committed and fond of one another. And sort thing out together. I don't see it as about romance but rather genuine care for another, to make another part of you, so much that you will act as of yourself, in your actions.

I am a bit of a loner also. But there are things in this life I want to experience still that I did not.... Let's put it that way ! Like I said, you know what you want. I think each soul has their own experiences to unfold.

As a woman, I will tell you this:

if you into a connection with a woman, and 3 to 6 months into the connection, everything is going fine, she starts to whidraw sexually or emotionally, but always have an excuse...that seems plausible , or make it as a consequence of something you have done, just do yourself a favour and run as fast as you can... Is a manipulative tactic used by an sers to get you hooked.

A woman in love, will always have sex, even with a lousy partner, because she is in love...

But, if a woman is not in love, sooner or later she will desengage and not want phisycal contact. And even look for other partners.

Manipulative men do the same, but not with sex. Men are always into sex. They mostly ghost and then come back.
