As much as ou like without feeling suffocated. I see my girlfriend as many times in the week as I can, looking into moving in with her so I can see her every time I come home.

Yes it is totally normal for a couple not to spend a whole weekend together. You shouldn't spend every single weekend together the whole time. You will start to miss things that you used to do, miss your friends on the wekends, etc. I have just started a new relationship myself and am running into this. We see eachother once or twice during the week becuase we both have work and school. Then we spend 90% of the weekend together. But I will go hang out w/ friends if invited - he doesn't have to come with me. Need to still have your own life durin the week and on weekends. Even when your married you won't spend a whole weekend with him.

Sure. As a Dad I try to find family things to do ,purposely, to keep my daughter away from her boyfriend. (my bad) . They have been together for at least three years , I think. He wants her to get an apartment together, he still lives at home, and he can't afford an apartment on his own. She is in college and working part time and I'm affraid that if they move in together she might not be able to continue her education. She already had to cut her work hours to focus more on her school work. It isn't an every weekend family thing, when the cash is right and other factors. It is also an attempt to have her in our lives till she finally can afford to move out. She does get to spend weekends with him. We never restrict her , but, plan fun things that make her want to be with us. They are both in there twentys. Do spend any quality time with your family ? Normal? What's normal?

Couples should do what works best for them. Some couples live together so see each other daily, others have situations where many days or a week or more may go by that they don't have the opportunity to be together.
As long as they are satisfied with the situation, that's what matters.

There is no norm when it comes to love. That depends on you both.
In my experiences, the only boyfriend I ever spent weekends with was the one I was with for 7 years, pretty much lived with for a couple of years, and almost married. Now, any guy since then and before then, we'd hang out when the mood struck us both.

It depends. Most people I know do spend atleast friday or saturday morning or night with their partner. I think every single day more than 4 times a day is to much to see anyone unless you live with them. My boyfriend and I only see each other like 4 times a week, we talk alot, and he we almost always hang out either saturday moring or saturday night.

well, seeing them every single day or every single hour would be too much. I think you are giving hm just enough air to breathe. Weekends can be your time to be together. Once a week is good enough to give him and you space. You can skip a weekend together periodically.

Definitely. If you guys NEVER want to see each other anymore, then theres something wrong, but its completely normal for both of you to want some alone time to spend with your friends and by yourself. As long as you guys are spending time together also!

The time you spend together is yours to define. Some couples like to spend a lot of time together, some are more distant.
It's healthy to have your own time, and your own hobbies and interests, so don't feel bad about that. Just make sure that you have regular quality time for your relationship.

Yes its normal. If your friends want to do something on the weekend with you... Do you brush them off for this guy? If yes... then you are seeing eachother too much. You both need seperate lives still. Good luck
