Give Your Spouse Space

When Rueben came home from work, we talked briefly, kissed a lot, then he announced he was going downstairs to read. Any time that I want to be alone, he has no problem with it, so I decided to return the favor. He asked if it was okay with me, and I answered in the affirmative. I was tempted to go look for him, but I know that if I were in his shoes, I would not like that, so I did not do rhat. Instead, I just went about my business until he came back upstairs.
