How to be Independent In a Relationship?
4. Spend some time alone
Learn to spend time alone. Think of the time when you had not met your partner. There were ways in which you kept yourself busy or spent your free time. Go back and do those things again and do not always stick your partner every time. You will discover that there is plenty of stuff you would want to do without your boyfriend/husband. Also, encourage your partner to do his own thing.
5. Trust him
Last but the not the least, you have to trust your partner. The very fact that you trust him and let him be will give enough encouragement to both of you to be independent in the relationship. Do not become so needy that you cannot stay for more than 5 minutes without talking to him and you constantly need to check up where he is or what he is up to. Trust him and you will see how healthy your relationship will become.
You, therefore, need to manage time for yourself in spite of being in a relationship. This will help you lead a healthy life which will thrive due to the trust you put in your partner and let him be on his own instead of being clingy and dependent.
