It seems like being too close can backfire on a relationship. What do you think about that ?

I am close with my hubby, I tell him everything, we like to do things together, we still go on dates, is this what you mean by being close?

I think you should remain close but that doesn't mean that you can live or breathe without your significant other right next to you. I also think there are times in a relationship that you are closer and then other times you become a little distant. In my relationship, I love the closeness even though the two of us do not see each other every minute. We have different hobbies, jobs, interests etc. We are close in heart and mind. However there are times I've felt removed from him, but I usually try to make the effort to bring back the closeness. The closeness is the reason we are together in the first place.

Well depends on what type of relationship you have with your significant other. If its a serious relationship then i think so. I think it is important to be close. I think that in a relationship you have to give it 100%. In every relationship you run the risk of getting hurt or something. But its better knowing that you gave it 100% and at least you know you tried.

Everyone needs a little space and privacy to make a relationship last.
Couples should be joined at the heart and not conjoined at the hip. Independence is important for a healthy, long-lasting relationship.
Good luck

We seem to alternate between being close and having our own 'space'. Our space time could last a day or two or a week or two. Just seems to be the natural flux of a relationship and it works for us.

Of course you both need space, but timing is everything.
If one of you wants to be alone and one doesn't, you'll have a very hurt, irritated sign. other after a while.
We have understood times where we're around each other but doing our own thing (Sun. mornings reading the paper, etc.) so neither of us gets offended by it, and understood times that we spend alone together (Fri nights). You can always modify it if you have a party to go to or whatever, but that's the default. So we get our own time and no hurt feelings.

I think you must always remain vulneranble to your significant other.

I like my space. If I didn't have it, it wouldn't work.

you are correct, when you give your heart to someone they almost always use it against you- being married is IS THE WORST MISTAKE ANYONE CAN EVER MAKE!
