@chopsuey119: Probably, just because I'm not used to him being around and I like "me" time.

DH and I spent nine months straight with each other after we graduated and didn't have jobs yet. It was half awesome half boring. We totally ran out of things to say to each other by the end.
Glad you're enjoying having him around so much!

Nope...we've done it for 3 months once when we moved went FL and stayed with his parents. I'm surprised I didn't get sick of him.

We worked together for 4+ years and spent almost all day every day together. It was awesome! I actually miss that aspect of our past jobs quite a bit.

Nope, but we are pretty independent, even in our house. We visit for about an hour in the morning and then after 5ish in the pm, but the rest of the time we are likely to be working on our own thing. I love our evening time together but I like being able to go my own way during the day.

Possibly, but only because my DH would get bored and become grumpy and that's no fun! But I would love seeing him more for sure!

It depends on what we were doing. My husband likes to work on his hobby stuff, so it would probably annoy me that we weren't doing family things.

Nope. I absolutely love having him around. I wish we weren't so busy & days weren't so long and work-filled.
We had a 4-day staycation over the 4th of July and it was ahmayzing.

I wish he could take a month off! But then there's so much to do around the house, we'd never be bored. Add the babies and we're not short on thigs to keep us engaged

If we were stuck at home with no outside activites or plans, yes we would! But if we were able to go out and do activities we would love it, we like to stay busy!

We spend almost every second of our lives together lol. We're not crazy yet!

I would love it! DH took a month of leave when DS was born and it was amazing.

I could totally do it! But I'd never be able to get DH to stick around every minute of the day! He's a busy body!!!
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Uh, yeah, i like my space....but as long as I got that, it'd be fine. Plus with kids, it's not like he'd be hanging out with me all day every day.
coconut / 8472 posts
Nope, cuz that's pretty much life :). We worked at the same company for 5 years, 2 of those years we were together. Neither of us have huge personal space needs. We actually miss each other a lot during the day now because we don't see each other as much.

I'd be fine but he would go crazy if he couldn't go out and do stuff. He'd definitely be out running errands or preferably golfing so we'd have apart time.

I thought I would hate it but I really enjoyed his 5 week manternity leave!
grapefruit / 4187 posts
No way, I would love every second of it. I actually hope that one day we can work together, I'd love to open a business with DH. I really hate being apart from him at all!
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
nope! his 6 week paternity leave went by in a flash. we LOVE being together. and even if we are both home get our own spurts of 'me time'... i wish we could just retire already!
cantaloupe / 6171 posts
nope! we normally are together all the time--he works from home and I'm home the majority of time as well (I'm a grad student and work from home unless I'm teaching or have meetings) and it's great. it was a little hard to get used to at first (we both used to in offices) but we each have our own space in our apartment and have learned to make it work. we're temporarily ldr while I'm working abroad for research and being apart makes me waaaaay crazier, I hate being away from him!
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
Nope, I would love it. I love when he's around to spend time with me and M. We're pretty much attached at the hip (unless I'm headed out with friends) and I love it.
pomegranate / 3809 posts
The only time we really spent every second of everyday together for an entire month was on vacation,so there was exciting new things to do. If we had to do that at home with no space of our own to retreat to, yeah, I think I'd go nuts.
grapefruit / 4311 posts
We spend all our time together.. So no!
we just started both working from home, so we are literally always together! (Ok, I take that back - he works two days in the office, so we have some healthy space those days but work goes by so slow for me when he's not here!)
nectarine / 2765 posts
I'd love if we could both be home for long periods of time! We're honestly best friends and love just hanging out together...he's my favorite person. We're also both very independent at home and we're good at giving each other space so we wouldn't be attached at the hip the whole time.

A HUGE part of parenting for us has been learning to meet our needs to togetherness AND alone time, with the addition of a chatty toddler. I'd love to have my husband around all the time (and he works from home several days a week), because we've really gotten that balance down these days. We'd spend a lot of awesome time together and make time for each of us to have alone time.
pomegranate / 3872 posts
We're together pretty much all day every day, so no! He's out of the house for a few hours in the AM and then a few hours in the afternoon but home by 5 most days. We used to work together so this is even more alone time than I'm used to! He doesn't really need alone time because he gets that at work but I usually have to get our for a few hours by myself once a week before I get twitchy

I think I would struggle with this as I am a very independent person. Also, I like to be "on the move" a lot while my husband is usually perfectly happy staying at home. I would get bored easily with no outside contact!
