What Does It Mean When Your Boyfriend Wants To Be Alone?

[Lifestyle] What Does It Mean When Your Boyfriend Wants To Be Alone?

- [+1,034, -35] My boyfriend has been kinda busy with work lately and we had plans to meet up tomorrow but he just text me on line “I want to be alone. I’m sorry for being selfish.” so I told him “It’s ok. If there’s anything I can do to help, just tell me.” and he responded “Thank you”

When I get tired from work, I want to hang out with him. It made me question ‘what does it mean when a boy wants to be alone..?’ at that moment. It makes me feel uneasy… are we gonna just break up like this? Have you guys been told ‘I want to be alone’ from your boyfriend as well?

1. [+2,703, -11] Wanting to be alone is understandable. After hitting various limits, talking to others becomes tiring

2. [+2,040, -53] The thread maker replies like an adult. So cool

3. [+1,977, -213] I want to break up = I want to be alone

4. [+1,812, -6] I haven’t been told that but my boyfriend understands what he means. When he’s really really tired he just wants to seriously be alone. You just have to leave him to himself then

5. [+1,800, -11] I don’t have experience being told that by my boyfriend, but since I enjoy my alone time as well so I understand what he’s feeling. There’s a lot of people who like having alone time

6. [+1,624, -20] My psychotherapist said there are times when a man wants to be alone so it’s best to not say anything and leave them alone when they tell you that. They said he’ll come flying back like a rubber band

7. [+1,236, -7] I want to be alone when I’m tired too

8. [+843, -13] I guess he wanted to rest since he’s tired huh🙄

9. [+819, -4] I have those times too where I really want to be alone.

10. [+573, -6] I haven’t but I want to be alone when I’m tired too. My alone time is my favorite.

11. [+443, -18] When I’m extremely tired, I’d rather rest than meet up with someone so I get what he feels but I wouldn’t tell someone ‘I want to be alone’ in that way. I’m feeling really tired, can I rest instead. I’m sorry. More like that?
