When a man feels you need space to pull things together, does it mean he wants to call it quits?

Answer 1

PROLLY

Answer 2

There could be many reasons for a man saying this....I will list my opinions on this and the reasons why a man may say this ok girl?......
1- He needs space from you. Not to say that in a mean way but sometimes when couples hang out too much it can cause tension,stressm, and fighting. He may just need some room to breathe and be himself. If you too have been fighting alot this may be the reason why, too much time together.

2-There is someone else. He cannot be with the other woman or look for other fish in the sea if your always together. he may feel the need to explore other women.

3- He is suddenly scared about getting serious. Maybe things are getting more serious and he is afraid of love. He may just need time to sort out his feelings. Some guys get scared of love. But that does not mean he is trying to get out of loving you it just means he is trying to think things out for the better for you and for him.

4-Or...........he might be taking time alone to deal with personal problems in his life or he thinks you may need to work out some personal problems in your life. Remember sweety ....time apart makes the heart grow fonder. Whatever the issue is just make sure you respect his wishes and give him his space. Give it a while and see what happens and maybe talk with him and see what he wants for you and him in this relationship honestly and openly. good luck girl!

Answer 3

It could, but sometimes it could be that he has other things happening in his life that he feels may directly effect his relationships with others and honestly needs time to think before he acts. I had a male friend caught in a situation like that and fortunately he had enough sense to think things through before he made any drastic decisions which ended up saving the relationship he was in. So, if you're lucky enough to have a man that is willing to be honest and tell you exactly what's going on and why he needs his space, then that should help you figure out whether he's worth waiting for or if he's just dangling you on a string.

Answer 4

Not necessarily, but if you don't give him the space to at least collect his thoughts and feelings, then it WILL mean he wants to call it quits. Remember, the more tightly you try to hold onto a relationship, the more likely that you will crush the life out of it. Give him some room and he just might surprise you be pulling together a better perspective of the two of you.

I hope you hear from him soon.

Answer 5

Not always. It all depends on the ppl involved and the situation. Each is unique. When a guys says HE needs space, you need to find out from what, who and why.

When he feels YOU need space find out why he feels this way.

The reasons one party may need space can be for any of the following-

- the relationship is going too fast
- the person is feeling confined or restricted
- another option may have become available

The main thing to do is be patient, ask the right question and then you will find out for sure if its space or goodbye.

Answer 6

Sometimes, but not necessarily. He may actually mean what he says. Have you been having problems in the relationship? Are there things that you and he have talked about that he may feel need to be addressed? If he has given you specifics on what needs to be pulled together, then maybe he really does want to continue the relationship when these things have been addressed.

Answer 7

He probably means just what he says ... he needs some space, some room to breathe. He may be feeling smothered or controlled. That's usually when the space thing comes up.

Back off, don't be too needy. Be cheerful. Keep in touch a BIT. If he sees you without the neediness or controlling, he may remember all the great aspects of the relationship. If he doesn't then, see ya'! He's not for ya'!

I'd just learn to be less needy in future relationships and chock it up to a learning experience.

Don't stalk him! He may be right for a future relationship when he's gotten himself together and you've grown a bit.

Good luck!

Answer 8

Not necessarily. It may mean that you are just coming on a little strong and he isn't into that kind of a relationship right at the moment. Tell him you want to hear exactly what he means by that -- tell him you can take it and you don't want to be strung along if he wants to break it off or if he really just needs the space. Honesty - works the best. Sometimes we get hurt but it's better than letting it drag on going nowhere, right?

Answer 9

I do not know about quits, but it certainly suggests things are not okay surely. Is there something you do that he can't handle
i.e Too full on
Being possesive

Most men do not like those kind of behaviours.

In my experience it mean time out to look at the whole package you offer. Your personality etc. against other things.

And so what if he quits it.... more fish in the sea!

Answer 10

The first thing is to stay positive despite the outcome. Ive been in the guys situation before, where I need some alone time to re-evaluate what it is I want from a relationship or just from life. Guys have to do this regularly because we need change in our lives. Try something new, give em some "alone time" n call, or text, him a message asking him if he'd like to do ( whatever new thing u or him would like to try). Keep the relationship interesting, especially in bed/

Answer 11

No, he just wants some space to think about things. He might end up breaking it, if that's what he ends up with thinking. He just needs some time to think, he might be a little introverted. Introverts just need some time to themselves to think. I am a introvert and I always need time to think things over. So no, he doesn't want to call it quits, he is trying to find a way around the problem, whatever it is.
