During visits..

[Butterfly-x]

Just to satisfy my curiosity...

I find that visits with my SO are more enjoyable when it's just me and him. No friends involved. Is this weird?

Last year when he visited for the first time, i was living with away from home and didnt have much friends at the start of the college year. When i went to visit him, i stayed at his house (he's an only child) , and again it was so much more fun cause it was just me and him most of the time .

He came to visit some weeks ago, and im currently living with some college friends. I just felt like i'd have preferred if they weren't around and the visit wasn't as fun this time. :/

Anyone else feel like this or am i just a strange ??

I thin it's natural to want to be alone for catch up time. My boyfriend's been here two weeks, and he's here for 6 more, yet for the first week I pretty much hid away with him. XD Now we're enjoying doing a bit with people, but there was definitely a lot of cloistering.

I don't like being around my boyfriend's friends either. I don't like to share him! Then again, he's very good about making me feel included, so it's not that bad, and we make a good balance between alone time and friend time.

I love meeting up with my SO's friends, but I also want to make sure that we get our alone time. Since our time together is limited anyway.

I feel the same, sometimes we plan to go out and eventually stay at home, just because we feel so good together

I feel the exact same! I love spending time with him when it's just me and him

I do not mind hanging out with friends and whatnot during visits (it can be very fun), but not for the entire trip. You can always have half of the day alone and the other half with friends. Since we hardly ever get to see one another, I think the majority of the time we spend should be alone. I can imagine that being somewhat annoying, so I would just make plans to do some things on your own for the next visit.

When I go there, he lives in a house with 7 roommates and even though we don't get as much alone time, his roommates are super fun and they love me, and so it ends up being alot of fun anyways. We still get catch-up time at night which is enough for me

When he comes here though I live in a house with roommates that you never even see, I might as well be living alone. While we get all the alone time we want I find myself wishing we had something fun to do or some other people to hang out with... It can get boring pretty fast. I'd prefer having more friends around when he comes up, because it makes the alone time that much more special, you know?

I havent met my SO yet but I'll just allow myself to say what I think ^^ lol

I love his friends, and I get along with them great And I bet there wont be any problems with us hanging out (same with him and my friends).
But I'd also try to make sure I get enough time with him alone, just to basically be able to mess around and end up naughty things I cant do with him while friends around :P

I can get that.

It's a little different for me, because we started out close-distance, and we have a LOT of the same friends (we were introduced through my roommate's brother, one of his good friends), so I don't mind spending time with him and the rest of our friends. In fact, I enjoy it, because everyone tries to get together when he's back, since he's the furthest-flung of our group.

But I also cherish our alone time, and fortunately our friends get that too...as I said, they better! They're the ones who put us together!

XD Same here. I'm not sure what it's gonna be like when we get back for Christmas, but I hope our friends remember that.
