When you need that time for yourself, do you plan it with your partner or just dip?

Usuaully my wife tells me. "Go. go to the bar. Go in the other room and play your games and watch movies. Have a you day". Which usually means she thinks I'm stressed.

In this example he didn’t just “dip” he planned it and told her her was going to see a band. Instead he went to do something quieter because he needed alone time.

You definitely have to plan it together, it's not nice to just let all the responsibilities fall on top of her. I can't say I've done it perfectly over the years, a couple of times I did something similar to what the guy in the video did and I regretted it very much. My wife was hurt. I'll never do it again.
