Is it normal that i sometimes dream about living alone?

I have never lived by myself. I either lived with parents or with 4758373 roommates. Now it's just me and my boyfriend. We get along great and he doesnt bother me at all, but sometimes i think about how great it would be to have my very own apartment, just me.

I could decorate however i want and not fuss about what i look like and watch the same movies over and over again and be a huge slob and listen to music real loud.

We live in a tiny 1 bedroom apartment and whenever i want to just sit alone in bed and watch a movie he always wants to come in and see me because he thinks i'm angry or something, when really i just want to do my own thing. I think he feels like if we're no together all the time then we're disfunctional.

Anyways i am extremely happy but sometimes i just wanna be alone. Is that normal?

    I'm 32, I think, and I have had my first place to myself ever just a few years back; still living here. It's great, nobody else's bullshit to deal with but my own.

    I used to miss that somebody just a door away to share a coffee with, but I surely don't miss the annoying ones.

    This happened to me in my early days of marriage. I used to send my husband to the pub telling him I needed alone time to pluck my eyebrows! He was happy to leave me alone ;o)

    Very normal - everybody needs their space/ time alone. Talk to him because if you spend too much time together, you'll end up getting on each other's nerves and you two won't last together - been there already.

    Yes. It sounds pretty much like how I want to be. Being alone it's always better. You're free to do whatever you want and you'll enjoy true peace with nobody bothering you. So nice.
